It was such a joy to kick off Holy Week with all of you on Palm Sunday. And thanks to those who joined Pastor Brent and other local congregations walking in solidairty for a Gaza ceasefire last Saturday. We still have some great Holy Week programs coming up this Friday and Sunday — we hope you can join us for any of the events below!
Good Friday Prayer Walk
This Friday, March 29, 3 - 5:00 PM beginning in Seward Park
This Friday afternoon, pastors from LSC will be joining with other local congregations to walk and pray around the Near North side neighborhood, in a practice modeled after the Stations of the Cross. Walk with us and reflect on the grace and promise of the Easter season in our local context! We’ll gather in Seward Park (375 W. Elm Street) and begin the walk at 3:15 PM.
Good Friday Evening Service
This Friday, March 29, 7:00 PM in our Sanctuary
Before the celebration of Easter, we reflect on the sacrifice of Good Friday, the day we mark and remember Jesus’ death on the cross that presages the resurrection. We’ll be hosting a contemplative service in our Sanctuary at 7:00 PM to reflect on the power of the cross and the life it has brought to the church and the world. Our service is geared for kids and youth about 10 years old and up — though all ages are welcome to join!
Easter Sunday & the ‘Big Day’ Celebration!
This Sunday, March 31, 10 AM in our Sanctuary & Leslie Hall
Our Easter Sunday service begins in our Sanctuary at 10 AM with worship from our all-ages Easter choir, a sermon from Rev. Liz, as well as communion and community testimony celebrating the Good News of Jesus Christ! Don’t miss it — and after service, head to Leslie Hall for our ‘Big Day’ celebration, where we’ll have activities for kids & families, a raffle (with a grand prize Easter basket put together by Pastor Julie!), and more.
We’re so excited to reflect on Good Friday, and celebrate Easter Sunday in the days ahead! Whether you plan to mark these days with us at LaSalle or elsewhere, we hope this Holy Week is a time to grow deeper in relationship with God, reflect on the sacrifice of Easter, and celebrate the Good News of the Gospel togeher with our church body and your family.
