* The Adult Bible Study class is focusing on Jesus' ministry and miracles in the Gospel books and people are really enjoying digging into the scripture. Each class topic stands on it its own - so if this is your first time attending - it's alright, you won't have to catch up!

* There are also classes for the middle/high school age crowd, elementary school age children, and nursery care is provided for infants/toddlers/preschool children.

There will be waving of palm branches just as when the people ushered Jesus into Jerusalem as their Messiah-to-be.

* Maundy Thursday Worship - Thursday April 1st, 7:00 p.m. - Remembrance of Jesus' Last Supper with the disciples at Passover (Communion) and his commission to serve others by following his example.
