EASTER AT WESTBROOK
The hope of the Christian faith is intricately tied to the bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ. We have misunderstood the resurrection of our Savior if we think that it is simply a moment of religious celebration. More so, if we miss the concept that this powerful moment can powerfully change us then we miss the reason that Jesus came to earth in the first place. Be sure to join us this Easter season and be sure to point your family and friends to Easter at Westbrook this year that they might experience this instantaneous transformation provided through the power of the cross.
Maundy Thursday Service
Thursday, April 6 • 7:00pm
Before celebrating Resurrection Sunday, we want to mindfully consider Jesus & his ministry before his death. Maundy Thursday serves as an opportunity for the church to remember Jesus’ Last Supper & the selflessness he displayed through the washing of his disciples’ feet. This service will give us tangible ways to practice humility and will wholly set the tone for a coming Easter celebration.
Join us for our Maundy Thursday Service.
Stations of the Cross & Prayer Vigil
Friday, April 7 • 7:00am-7:00pm
Stations of the Cross provides each person with a personal, intimate space to experience Holy Friday. Here, you will be encouraged to reflect on Jesus’ final hours before his death. Doors will be open all day, and you may take as much time needed for prayer and reflection. For a full experience, consider blocking out at least 30 minutes anytime on Good Friday for this self-guided prayer experience.
Family Walk
Friday, April 7 • 9:00am-6:30pm
Similar to the Stations of the Cross, follow the journey of Jesus through story and hands-on activities for all ages which encourages our children to experience what Christ did for all people. Make sure to invite your friends and neighbors.
For a full experience, consider blocking out at least 20 minutes to walk through the activities with your children.
Good Friday Service
Friday, April 7 • 7:00pm
Easter is more fully understood & celebrated when the entirety of its context is considered. Good Friday, or Holy Friday, is a time for the church to lament; it is a time to captivate the long weekend when death temporarily won. Our Good Friday service will challenge us to mindfully enter a grieving space. To wholly celebrate Easter, we will first experience the lamenting service on Good Friday.
