 Tenebrae, or “Service of Shadows,” is one of the oldest traditions of the Christian church for the commemoration of the passion and death of Christ. As the Passion story unfolds through the readings and music, the darkness increases, until with the death of Jesus, only one light is left burning. This is not necessarily a cheerful service, as it is an entering into the story of our Lord Christ on the night he was betrayed. It helps us appreciate more gloriously the explosion of light that is Easter. This service will take place on Thursday, April 17th, at 7:00 PM. It is a very participatory event and we are in need of several readers.
Please contact Pastor Aaron if you would like to be a reader for the service. 250-426-4319 ext.103 [email protected]  We know spring is upon us when it's time to sweep the parking lot!
All are invited to help on Saturday, April 5th, to sweep our church parking lot and rake the lawn. Please bring brooms, rakes, buckets, and any other equipment necessary if you have them! Come at 2:00 PM, and bring the kids!  Pastor Aaron is putting together care packages for college students! What a great way to remind them that we, as a church family, pray and care for them while they are away studying hard!
