HOLY WEEK
Palm Sunday
Sunday 10th April (9:00am)
The Springfield Anglican College, Secondary Campus, Sports Dome
This Palm Sunday, we'll be worshipping in the sports dome and our service will begin with a triumphal procession with palm branches.
We look forward to seeing you on Sunday as we enter into Holy Week.
Maundy Thursday
Thursday 14th April (6:30 - 8:30pm)
Cedar Building
On Maundy Thursday we will be re-enacting the Last Supper that Jesus had with his disciples before he was arrested, put on trial and condemned to death. The service includes a shared ‘Passover’ meal, foot washing (symbolically re-enacted from the front) and communion. This is a very evocative service and a wonderful way to connect with the events preceding Easter.
Good Friday
Friday 15th April (9:00 - 10:00am)
Cedar Building
On Good Friday, we will gather as a church to focus on the immensity of Christ’s sacrifice and the love that drove him to suffer and die on our behalf. It is a poignant service that brings the horror of the cross into focus and increases our anticipation of the resurrection.
We cannot get to the joy, celebration and victory of Easter Sunday without first going through the sorrow, mourning and apparent defeat of Good Friday.
Easter Sunday
Sunday 17th April (9:00am)
The Springfield Anglican College, Secondary Campus, Sports Dome
For Christians, Easter Sunday is the biggest celebration of the year, as we proclaim Jesus’ resurrection, his bursting from the tomb. Jesus has defeated death and made it possible for us to receive the gift of forgiveness and everlasting life.
If you have attended all the services from Palm Sunday onwards, you will feel as if you have ‘lived’ the events of Christ’s passion. Our Easter Day service will be the high point at the end of this amazing journey.
