Maundy Thursday Service

Thursday, April 9 at 6pm

Whether you decide to join in the Zoom prayer service or to have a private home service, a little preparation will help you enter into a sacred time and space.

Set up your worship space at your table, if possible, and have a candle to light and a simple meal such as bread, cheese, fruit, hummus, olives, and wine (or its substitute) set out.  We will give thanks for our food and one another and hear the call to self-giving love before disconnecting from the internet to eat our suppers and strip our homes in preparation for Good Friday.

The Service Booklet

To follow along with readings, hymns, and prayers, download the order of service. The print booklet is formatted for printing out at home:
