Palm Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week

Palm Sunday Services mark the beginning of Holy Week April 13-19 in churches all over the United States. At Epworth it begins with remembering the Triumphal Ride of Jesus into Jerusalem. Throughout the first four weekdays of Holy Week we will gather at noon for a brief Service of Holy Communion. On Good Friday we will conclude our week with an evening service of the Stations of the Cross in which participants will walk with a tour guide through a dramatic storytelling of the arrest and crucifixion of Jesus, followed by the old style Word and Table IV Service of Holy Communion as we then wait through Saturday for the Day of Resurrection. Check out Holy week services at Epworth.

Lent and Self Denial

MARCH

The month of March begins with the last remnants of winter lingering on when we are anxious to get to Spring. It’s like leftover food that is still good in its own right, but we have had enough and we want to move on. >>

Journey through the Lenten Luncheon Series

Each year Epworth joins with four sister churches in Southwest Durham (Westminster Presbyterian, St. Stephen’s Episcopal, St. Paul’s Lutheran and Pilgrim United Church of Christ) to journey through the Lenten Season in prayer and self examination as we gather once each week at noon on Wednesdays for worship services followed by lunch. You are invited to join with us. Just follow the link for the complete schedule.
