St. John’s United Methodist Church

Maundy Thursday, April 9th, at 7 PM
Foot Washing Service & Communion (in groups of 12), in Hartford Hall

Good Friday, April 10th
Noon – Ecumenical Service at First Parish UCC, Dover
7 PM Service of readings and prayers in our sanctuary

Easter morning we’ll begin with our First Fire service – an outdoor service at the Chapel by the river. The Christ candle will be lit and we will process to the sanctuary, accompanied by the music of Bagpipes. This all begins at 5:30 AM.

At 6 AM, our youth will lead the Sunrise Service in the sanctuary – held here so everyone in our congregation can have access to this service.

Easter breakfast will have its own form of praise as resurrection people gather around a table of fellowship, to enjoy one another’s company as well as the special spirit of the day. Breakfast will be served immediately following the Sunrise Service.

Then Easter Worship will be lead by the mighty Pipe Organ, Handbells, Choir and instrumentalists. We will have two services – at 9 and 11 AM (please note the later beginning time for our second Sunday morning service). The glorious message of hope and triumph over sin and death will be proclaimed through scripture and sermon.
