** Check out our "Holy Week Guide"  at the link via the button below for preview of devotionals and special observances you can take part in as we journey toward Easter Sunday. We'll update the website daily with additional resources for songs and online version of the PDF resource, but there are items you may want to purchase or gather early in the week. **
Call to Worship - Select someone to be your “leader.” They will read the regular text and everyone else will respond in the bold.

Holy Week Guide
The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not want.
Your rod and your staff, they comfort me.

​
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever. Amen.

SING

Sing one of the next two songs. Enter full screen and follow the lyrics on the screen.

PRAY

Read James 5:16. Practice the art of confession. Say:

I confess to almighty God, and to you my brothers and sisters,
That I have sinned through my own fault,
In my thoughts and in my words,
In what I have done, and in what I have failed to do,
And I plead the blood of Jesus for my forgiveness.


Take time to confess to God or to others either out loud, in a prayer journal, or in silent prayer. If someone speaks a confession out loud to you, listen patiently and assure them of Christ's forgiveness. Conclude by speaking the truth of forgiveness:

LORD Jesus, through your cross you have forgiven us, and we have new life in you.

Share prayer concerns and pray for others.

GIVE

Take a moment to speak or write out a note of thanksgiving to God as an offering.

DISCUSS/REFLECT

Let's spend some time reflecting on scripture together. Read Luke 19:37-44 and use the following questions to reflect in a journal or discuss as a group:

What do you like?
What do you dislike?
What is confusing or strange?
What do you learn about God?
How will you live differently in response to this?

​
After you have concluded your own reflections, check out some of the devotional thoughts below from one of our deacons, Jeff Parker.

DEVOTIONAL THOUGHTS

SING

Sing one of the next two songs. Enter full screen and follow the lyrics on the screen.

PRAY

Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your Name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For yours is the kingdom, the power, and the glory, now and for ever. Amen.

May the glory of the LORD endure forever; may the LORD rejoice in his works. Amen.

You can conclude your set time of worship here, but let your whole life be oriented to God in praise! See below for scripture to commit not just to memory but to your heart.

HEART VERSE

Memorize and reflect upon the meaning of this verse to commit to heart.

"Whoever does not take up their cross and follow me is not worthy of me." - Matthew 10:38
