https://springbranch.ccbchurch.com/goto/forms/657/responses/newOur Easter Celebration begins on Thursday April 14th with a Maundy Thursday service.
The word “Maundy” comes from a traditional Latin phrase from John 13:34 meaning Maundy Thursday comes from Jesus’ command in John 13:34 meaning to love one another. So we start our Easter Celebration by worshiping, celebrating communion together, and remembering to love and serve one another.
Join us for our Easter Services on April 17 at 9:15 and 11:15 am and bring a friend with you.
