Maundy Thursday Special Program: April 18
Please join us on Thursday, April 18 for dinner and a special program, followed by a worship service including Tenebrae and Communion. Dinner will be served beginning at 5:30 in Russell Hall, and the program will start at 6. Come learn more about what life was like in Jerusalem in Jesus’ time, and watch some video of what the area looks like today. The worship service starts at 7:00 p.m. in the Sanctuary. Come hear the story of Jesus’ Passion – the events from his last supper through his crucifixion and burial.
Easter Sunday: April 21
Come celebrate the Good News of Christ’s resurrection. The Sanctuary will be adorned with spring flowers and it will be a joyful occasion. Please join us if you can – and invite a friend or family member. It’s a great season to share the good news.
“We, the people of the First Congregational Church of Leicester, affirm that each individual is a child of God, and we recognize that we are called to be like one body with many members. We celebrate the beauty and uniqueness of each expression of God’s diverse family as well as our oneness in Christ. As we seek to live out Christ’s compassion and promote healing and wholeness of life, we welcome into our community persons of every age, race, nationality, economic and social status, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, mental and physical ability, faith background, marital standing and family structure; and we invite them to share in the life, leadership, ministry, fellowship, worship, sacraments, responsibilities, joys, hardships and blessings of our congregation as we seek to grow together in faith and love.” The ONA Covenant adopted by a large majority in a special meeting on Jan. 27, 2019. I feel so blessed to serve this wonderful, faithful, loving community. xo Doreen
