Maundy Thursday, Year A

I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another.  --John 13:34
 
Three holy days enfold us now in gathering friends and breaking bread,
in cross and font and life renewed: in Christ, God’s first-born from the dead.
 
The mystery hid from ages past is here revealed in word and sign,
for Jesus’ story is our own: new life through death is God’s design.
 
Christ lifted high upon the tree, before you every knee shall bend
and every tongue in praise proclaim: “You are the Holy One. Amen.”
 
The Three Days of Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and the Great Easter Vigil invite us into the fullness of this saving story of the Christ. Come and see what God can do.
 
Enter into worship, 7:00pm.
