St. Paul’s Lutheran Church

Join Us For Holy Week

As Easter approaches, we welcome you to Holy Week services at St. Paul's.

Passion Sunday: April 13

Worship at 8:30 a.m. and 11 a.m.

(For the 11 a.m. service, please gather at the Muhlenberg statue across the street from St. Paul's church building.)

Maundy Thursday: April 17

7:30 p.m. Holy Communion and Foot Washing

On Maundy Thursday, we will hear Jesus give the commandment to love one another as he has loved us. According to the John 13, on the night before his death, Jesus washed the feet of the disciples as an example of loving service. The Maundy Thursday worship service invites us to join many others in this ritual in which we are invited to demonstrate our understanding of Jesus' example to serve one another in love. At the end of the Maundy Thursday service, you will be given time to move to the two stations set up in the baptistery, if you choose to participate. If you have any questions about this age-old ritual in the church during Lent, call or email Pastor Tom at tomholt@stpaulslutherandc.com, Victor David at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
