You’re warmly invited to a shared Maundy Thursday Supper — an evening of simple food, Holy Communion, and gentle reflection as we remember the night Jesus gathered with his friends.

We’ll begin around the table, sharing a meal in the spirit of fellowship and friendship, before moving into a time of Communion and thoughtful reflection on love, service, and sacrifice. It’s a quiet, meaningful way to enter into the heart of Holy Week together.

Whether you come often or haven’t been for a while, there’s a seat at the table for you. Come as you are — we’d love to share this special evening with you.
