Celebrate Holy Week at Good Samaritan!

Sunday, April 14: Palm Sunday, 10 a.m.: Good Samaritans will gather on the front lawn of Harris Academy (weather permitting) for a festive Palm Sunday procession at the beginning of worship, remembering Jesus’ triumphant arrival in Jerusalem in the week prior to his death. The liturgy includes a congregational reading of the Passion narrative, Holy Communion, and concludes in silence as Holy Week begins.

The service ends in silence and darkness.
