Lent & Easter at NMC

A time for families to eat rich foods and have fun before we begin our 40-day time of reflection during Lent. Dinner provided. All children welcome.

​

Following this meal, we will enter a 24 hour fasting period to focus our hearts on the Lord.

Together we celebrate King Jesus' arrival into Jerusalem, and begin the final week of His ministry.

Pastor Luke will be teaching each morning during Holy Week about our Jesus who saves us through & through. 

Good Friday is a service of remembrance. We will be reflecting on the crucifixion and death of Jesus Christ through his 7 final word. The grief of this service will prepare our hearts for the joy that comes on Sunday morning.

Join us as we celebrate Palm Sunday and the triumphant entry of Jesus in Jerusalem! Following worship, we'll gather for a churchwide potluck meal filled with great food and even better fellowship.  Bring your favorite dish to share and come ready to connect, laugh and celebrate the beginning  of Holy Week together.

Join us on a sacred journey of prayer and reflection as we walk with Jesus from His condemnation to His burial.  Through Scripture, silence and meditation, we remember Christ's suffering, sacrifice, and unfailing love for us.

On this day, we encourage you to spend time in the dirt. As we reflect and remember this solemn day that Jesus lay in the tomb, we need to be reminded that we came from the dirt and to the dirt we will go again.

A time of fellowship over meals prepared by the church, and a shared Lenten devotional to help you prepare your heart for what Jesus endured for us.

Come experience the Biblical feast of Passover pointing us to our Passover Lamb Jesus.  This will be a hands-on learning/tasting event revealing God's ultimate plan for the redemption of His people - in the present and the time to come! Taught by Pastor Lynne Hobbs.
