3/15 – 4/5 – 10:45 am – Dr. Brogdon’s Easter sermon series, “When the Gospel Meets Our Failure”
Failure is not the end of God’s work. It is often the place where God meets us and reshapes us. Through this sermon series we will follow the gospel story through the disciples’ misunderstandings, the conspiracy to kill Jesus, and the hard truth of Good Friday. And on Easter, we will proclaim that resurrection means God gets the final word, not our sin, not our rebellion, not even the failures of the church. In a time when many have grown disillusioned or distant from organized religion, this series is an invitation to rediscover a gospel that is honest about failure and bold about hope. There is a word from the Lord for such a time as this.

3/29 – 11 am – Palm Sunday Service
On the final Sunday of Lent, we will undertake the journey of Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem all the way to his arrest, conviction, and crucifixion. We will read scripture and sing together as we sit in the reality of how quickly the shouts of Hosanna and the waving of palm branches turn to shouts of Crucify him. We will wonder and reflect on the ways we are implicated in Jesus’ death, and how we can work against powers of empire and death in our world today.

4/1 – 5:30 pm – 7:30 pm – Labyrinth Walk and Foot Washing
Come for a Holy Week meditation in the form of a labyrinth walk and foot washing ritual. Our friends who formerly hosted the labyrinth ministry, begun at SFBC by Rev. Cathy Franssen, will set the space. We will have a foot washing and/or handwashing ritual available before or after labyrinth walks to remember Jesus’ humble servant leadership and to offer tangible community care. Handheld and table-sized labyrinths will be available for those who prefer to stay seated. The space will be set with candles and meditative music, so join for a brief walk or stay the whole time to be immersed in the Spirit. All are welcome.

4/3 – 6 pm – Good Friday Dinner and Service
All are welcome to join a Holy Friday dinner of remembrance and reflection on Friday, April 3 at 6 pm in the Fellowship Hall. In our time together, we will remember the journey of Jesus through Holy Week, filling in the space from the triumphant entry to Jerusalem on Palm Sunday to the depths of grief on Holy Friday. We will tell the story again, hoping to gain some new wisdom or perspective as we engage with it through the lens of the Good News revealed through nonviolence. Our dinner will be a simple one of soup, bread, and salad, with vegetarian options available.
