The Easter season is a special time at Trinity. It’s a time for rebirth. It’s a time to celebrate Christ’s triumph over death. It’s a time to renew, revisit, or reinvigorate a special relationship with Jesus Christ.
There are services for everyone. Listed below is the schedule of activities and services observed at Trinity during this Holy Week:
Palm Sunday – April 1
Services will be held at the usual times of 8:30, 9:45, and 11 a.m.
Elementary school-age children join in the processional, carrying palms at the 11 o’clock service.
Maundy Thursday – April 5
This service of communion and drama is a traditional observance of the Last Supper of Christ. The service is held at 7:30 p.m.
Good Friday – April 6
Trinity will be the host of fellow United Methodists throughout the city for this observance of the crucifixion of Christ. The service begins at 12 noon, followed by a $5 lunch served in Moor Hall. Lunch reservations need to be made by calling 222-1120.
Easter Egg Hunt – April 7
Don’t miss the Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday, April 7 at Tom Brown Park in the Lake Leon Playground Area (the old playground off of Conner Boulevard). The activities will begin at 10:00 a.m. with coffee, cocoa, and games and facepainting. The potluck brunch and Easter Egg Hunt will follow.
Easter Sunday – April 8
Get up early and attend the Sunrise service at 7 a.m. in E. Peck Greene Park across the street from Trinity.
Or, come to one of the other three services at 8:30, 9:45, and 11 a.m. The services will feature special music including Handel’s “Hallelujah Chorus.” This is a great opportunity to join the choir for at least one song!
