First Congregational Church of Rochester, 11 Constitution Way in Rochester, is pleased to announce its Holy Week schedule. We invite you to come and worship with us. Our gatherings will also be live streamed on our website, www.rochestercongregational.com.
March 24 at 10:00 am – Palm Sunday. Our pastor, Rev. Colby Olson, will help us discover “Adoration Leading to Power.” Palms will be distributed after the worship gathering.
March 28 at 7:00 pm – Maundy Thursday. This somber service includes Communion, Scripture reading, and the gradual extinguishing of lights in the Sanctuary to impress upon the hearts of believers the awful consequences of sin and the magnitude of the Savior’s sacrifice. Since this is such a solemn service, we ask that attendees enter and exit in silence.
March 29 at 7:00 pm – Good Friday. This Good Friday gathering will include Communion and a special message called “Leave It On The Cross.”
March 31 – Resurrection Sunday. Our sunrise gathering begins at 7:30 am on the Church Green and will be followed by a free Easter breakfast in our Fellowship Hall. An Easter worship gathering will be held in the Sanctuary at 10:00 am during which we will celebrate that our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is alive. So that we can adequately prepare for the free breakfast, we ask that you call the church office at 508-763-4314 by March 24 to let us know you’re coming.
