Easter Sunday is quickly approaching!  In order to celebrate the resurrection, we need to experience everything that led up to that glorious morning.

On Palm Sunday, March 20, we considered the beginning of this Holy Week when our Lord entered Jerusalem.  Our choirs led us through a special worship where to journeyed from the palms, through the cross, and to the empty tomb.

During this special week, PUMC is providing some special opportunities to prepare ourselves for the majesty of Easter Morning…

 

Tuesday (3/22)

Tuesday Night “Series”.  The evening starts out with a dinner at 6PM, and then we break up into our small groups, Youth Groups, and Bible Studies at 7PM.
