Worship Series: "Gathered Up in Jesus"
This Week's Theme: "The Lord Needs It"
Liturgical
Resources
Here we are again. We are on the brink of the remembrance of the central event of our faith. Holy
Week and Easter shape our understanding of who we are as followers of Jesus Christ more than any
other single event. We are, as others have said, Easter people living in a Good Friday world. We
are defined by this sacrifice and by this gift of eternity. And it all begins with Palm Sunday.
