SUMMARY:Holy Week: Maundy Thursday Worship
DESCRIPTION:Come to Maundy Thursday Worship — April 2\nOn the night before his crucifixion\, Jesus did something no one expected: he got down on his knees and washed his disciples’ feet. No grand speech\, no miracle — just a basin of water and the hands of a servant. Maundy Thursday takes its name from Jesus’ command that night: “Love one another as I have loved you.” We gather to hear that command\, to share in the Lord’s Supper\, and — if you’re willing — to wash and be washed in an act of humility that is as strange and powerful today as it was then. This is the night the Three Days begin. Whether you’ve observed Holy Week for decades or are coming for the first time\, there is room for you at this table. \nMaundy Thursday\, April 2 @ 7:00PM \nChrist Mertz Lutheran Church • 16 Fleetwood Rd\, Fleetwood PA \nPhone/Email • 610.682.7664 – christ@christmertz.org

SUMMARY:Holy Week: Good Friday Worship
DESCRIPTION:Come to Good Friday Worship — April 3\nWhy do we call it Good Friday? Because we know how the story ends. But we’re not there yet. Good Friday is the day we sit with the weight of the cross — the arrest\, the trial\, the nails\, the words “It is finished.” John’s gospel tells the story not as a defeat but as a strange and costly victory: the one who is crucified as a criminal is\, in the same moment\, reigning as king. We gather on this day to hear that story\, to pray for a broken world\, and to reverence the cross on which hung Christ\, the savior of the whole world. It is a quiet\, spare\, and profound service — one that takes the darkness seriously so that Easter can mean what it means. All are welcome. \nGood Friday\, April 3 @ 7:00PM \nChrist Mertz Lutheran Church • 16 Fleetwood Rd\, Fleetwood PA \nPhone/Email • 610.682.7664 – christ@christmertz.org

SUMMARY:Easter Sunday Worship
DESCRIPTION:He Is Risen! Come to Easter Sunday Worship — April 5\nEaster turns the world upside down. The tomb is empty. The women who go to mourn come back running — terrified and overjoyed at the same time. The one who was crucified on Friday is alive on Sunday\, and nothing will ever be the same. This is the central claim of the Christian faith\, and once a year we gather to celebrate it with everything we’ve got: music\, light\, words of scripture\, and the bread and cup of the Lord’s Supper. Whether you’ve been here every week of Lent or haven’t been to church in years\, Easter Sunday is a wide-open door. Come and celebrate. Come and hear the story. Come and see what it means that death does not have the last word. \nEaster Sunday\, April 5 @ 9:00AM \nChrist Mertz Lutheran Church • 16 Fleetwood Rd\, Fleetwood PA \nPhone/Email • 610.682.7664 – christ@christmertz.org
