Lent and Holy Week


Palm Sunday - March 20  
Blessing of the Homes

We will travel to your home, car or garden and offer an Easter blessing.  This is a tradition from Spain where they lay palms across their walkway to indicate a blessing is desired.  Here in Northwood and in the digital age, send an email to ncc@myfairpoint.net to request your blessing.

Maundy Thursday - March 24  
Soup and Bread Dinner 6:00 pm 

Join us for a simple soup and bread supper.
Tennebrae Service and Communion    7:00 pm 
We will re-create a garden in the room under the Sanctuary for communion service and a very powerful retelling of the betrayal and death of Jesus.

Good Friday - March 25  
Carrying Jesus' Cross    7:00 pm

New to us this year, we will take turns carrying a life-size cross from the church through the playing fields of Coe Brown, ending with a brief service as the cross is planted in the ground.  Be prepared with outdoor clothes and shoes.
