Seder for Maundy Thursday

This year Christ Church will again commemorate Maundy Thursday, April 5, by hosting a Passover Seder Meal in the Fellowship Hall at 6:30 p.m., followed by a brief Tenebrae worship service in the Sanctuary. Passover is the oldest and most important religious festival in Judaism, commemorating God’s deliverance of the Hebrews from slavery in Egypt and the creation of the Israelite people. The Seder is a re-telling of the deliverance story utilizing ritual and symbolism throughout the course of the meal.

The Seder is an inter-generational family event; children of all ages are welcome and encouraged to attend and participate. To facilitate the organization of the Seder meal, please let us know that you are planning to attend by contacting the church office with your name and the number of people attending. Please also let us know if you are interested in helping prepare the meal, or would simply like to contribute ingredients or groceries.
