From Palms to Cross to Empty Tomb
Holy Week at Spirit of Life Lutheran Church

Walk the journey of the Tridiuum at Spirit of Life. 

On Palm Sunday we'll shout Hossannas and wave cedar boughs, claiming Jesus as our own. On Maundy Thursday, we'll gather in the upper room with Jesus around a meal, readings  of scripture and poetry and moving music, ending with the stripping of the atar in preparation for Good Friday. On Good Friday we'll gather around the cross as our Lord is crucified and laid in a tomb, indicated in a serivce of diminishing lights or "Tennebrae". On Easter Saturday we'll gather to prepare the space with art and installation. A light supper will be served. at 8pm we'll gather around the fire pit on the front patio and embrace the Vigl of Easter. Easter Sunrise service is at 7am - we'll gather in the foyer of the church and make our way up to the roof, overlooking the city of Vancouver. Afterwards, we'll make our way down to the Manor Lounge for coffee and 8:00 am Easter breakfast. Festival Worship begins at 10am.

Come as you are. There is no need to dress fancy, be cheerful or pretend to be anything but yourself. Spirit of Life welcomes all. 

We're just one block from the Broadway City Hall Skytrain station and bus stop and we have parking just off the alley between Alberta and Yukon.
