Were You There...?

There is an old gospel hymn that asks the question, "Were you there...?" It asks were you there when they crucified my Lord? Were you there when they nailed him to the tree? Were you there when they laid him in the tomb? Were you there when he raised up from the dead? Were you there?
This is a difficult week. It contains the central story of our faith: the anticipation of Palm Sunday, the fellowship of Maundy Thursday, the heartbreak of Good Friday, the waiting of Holy Saturday and the risen hope in Easter. I hope you will join me and together we will sing Hosannas and wave palms this Sunday, we will break the Bread of Life and share the cup at Thursday's Potluck Service, we will weep together in the shadows of Friday night's Tenebrae Service and wait for the dawn...
~Pastor Eric
