Holy Week and Easter Sunday Worship Opportunities for 2021

Hello, friends!

I pray that you are well as we continue in this journey through the season of Lent and move towards Holy Week and, ultimately, Easter Sunday! I invite you to join me in this journey of worship, reflection, contemplation, and celebration. Please see the information below regarding our upcoming worship services and other opportunities to connect and see one another.

A PDF document containing the outline is available for download at the bottom of this message.

Blessings on this journey!
Pastor Sherry

On March 28th, we will celebrate Palm Sunday and enter into Holy Week and then celebrate resurrection on Easter Sunday!! 

Easter Lilies – we need 30 Lilies to fill the Easter Cross; we plan to distribute the lilies to all seniors (80 years or more), including those who are home-bound and those who are in care facilities (if we receive the okay to deliver to care facilities).

Please call Susan in the church office or email her to let her know how many lilies you wish to sponsor. Church office number: 610-326-4173 or email address: susan@cedarvilleumc.org
