"To You, O Lord, I call...My rock."
Have you ever set aside a week of preparation for the highest of holy days for believers? Starting with Palm Sunday on March 24th, join Jesus followers around the world for an intentional time of reflection, remembrance and returning to the Good News offered to us in Christ.
March 24th Palm Sunday 9 & 11 - embrace the children waving palm branches and sharing in the start of these last days before Easter at both worship services.
March 28th Maundy Thursday 7:00 pm - experience The Lord's Supper with scripture readings and prayers of preparation that point towards the Lord's sacrifice.
March 29th & 30th Good Friday & Holy Saturday - pray at home and through an online experience to recognize and remember the journey Jesus took for us to the cross. Take home materials for extended prayer vigils at home will be provided, as well as a broadcast link to watch online.
March 31st
7:00 am Sunrise Service - we are worshipping at our beautiful outdoor chapel. Park in our lower parking lot off Turtle Rock Dr - the chapel is connected to the parking lot. Communion is offered to all in attendance (membership not required).
9:00 am Contemporary Worship - uplifting praise from our band and praise team, special content for our children, too. Communion is offered to all (does not require membership).
11:00 am Traditional Worship - great music, our Easter Lilly decorated sanctuary, and Communion (which does not require membership to participate, all are welcome to the Lord's Table at San Pedro).
Egg Hunt - for the kiddos at 10:00. There will be two "hunts" to ensure there's plenty of fun for both the older and younger aged children. RSVP not required but parents should bring children early to ensure they receive instructions. The "cascarones canon" will be on full display (always a hit with the kids).
Invite a friend, show up early to reserve your seat, and glorify God in celebration of the Resurrection of His son, Jesus Christ.
Easter at San Pedro is always inspiring, always welcoming, and always offered for the glory of God.
Lent is a 40 day season of prayer recognized by Christians around the world. Jesus followers who choose to recognize these weeks often fast and observe spiritual disciplines starting on Ash Wednesday, ending at sundown on Maundy Thursday. When observed, Lent is meant to be a time of preparation to celebrate the Jesus’s Resurrection on Easter Sunday.
Your Roman Catholic friends may also abstain from meat on Fridays during Lent, which is why you’ll see celebrations of “fish fry” events during this season. Fish is not considered a meat. Protestants, on the other hand, typically refrain from a variety of foods that they would otherwise enjoy (sweets, sodas, etc.).
Recently a renewed interest in this period encourages not only abstaining from food, but also intentionally practicing acts of generosity, kindness and forgiveness. The intent is to recognize that removing foods from one’s lifestyle don’t necessarily lead to spiritual renewal and transformation. Disciplines and habits during Lent should point Jesus followers towards Christ’s grace, our need for salvation, and reminders to turn away from actions/choices/thoughts that are not pleasing to God (also known as “repentance”).
During Lent, the San Pedro message series centers on parables from Jesus found in the Gospel of Mark. Dr Stamper also offers a devotional series by email. Sign up to receive them Monday through Friday, HERE.
The following classes are active from February 1st to April 28th. Stop in to any of these classes.
