Congregations of the Tri-County Cooperative Ministries, ELCA will observe Holy Week and the Easter Celebration.
Members will gather for Maundy Thursday services, celebrating the Sacrament and displaying reverence for the night of the Lord’s Supper when Jesus gathered with His disciples. Good Friday is when people of faith recall the great suffering Jesus endured and the death that came on the cross.
Maundy Thursday Communion Services will be held at 7 p.m. at Faith Lutheran Church, Weimar; Zion Lutheran Church, Moulton; St. Peter Lutheran Church, West Point; and Zion Lutheran Church, Sublime. Zion, Moulton and St. Peter, West Point will also have a meal at 6:00 p.m.
Zion Lutheran Church, Moulton will have a 2 p.m. Good Friday Service.
At other TCCM congregations — Zion, Sublime; St. Peter, West Point; and Faith, Weimar — attendees will have the opportunity to enter the churches between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m. for a time of prayer and meditation, the reading of Scriptures, and devotions on Good Friday.
Materials will be placed in the entrances of the churches and guidance provided for this special time for individuals, couples and families. This special opportunity is intended as preparation for the celebration of Easter.
According to the Christian faith, Easter is the occasion for celebrating the surprise of the Resurrection in which Jesus defeated the powers of sin, death and Satan. Christians believe that the resurrection brought new life for the world as well as the gift of eternal life.
Martin Luther reminds us that every Sunday, is a little Easter.
There will be Communion Services, Easter Brunches and Easter Egg Hunts at various TCCM congregations. Family and friends are welcome to attend all Holy Week and Easter Services.
