We are so excited about what God has in store for our community this Easter! You and your family & friends are warmly invited to a series of events that will bring joy, encourage self-reflection, and lead you to a greater understanding of the promise of Easter!
what's it all about?
HOLY WEEK STARTS HERE
The journey to Easter begins with Jesus' triumphant entry into Jerusalem. From there, things take a turn that would change the world forever. Come and see how we mark this day at Pluckemin Church and stay for the "Eggstravaganza" event immediately following worship!
you're invited to An Egg-cellent eggstravaganza!
Eggstravaganza is a fun, carnival-like event with activities intended for all kids - toddlers to teens. An Easter Egg Hunt (kids up to 5 years old), a bunny hunt (older kids search for stuffed bunnies with clues to a puzzle), flower planting, a prayer labyrinth, and craft stations await you! Meet “Big Al” the tortoise and visit with children’s author Laura Sassi as she reads us her book “Bunny Finds Easter!” The event takes place on the church campus immediately following worship, around 11:15 a.m.
Registration for this event is requested.
maundy thursday & Good friday
March 28 at 6:00pm -Maundy Thursday Observance
On this solemn day, we remember Jesus' Last Supper with his disciples. Meet in Fellowship Hall for a light meal and communion. After, we make our way to Sanctuary for scripture readings and music.
March 29 from 6-9pm - Good Friday Self-Guided Reflection Stations
The church will offer a unique, self-guided experience. Walk silently through multiple symbolic stations, including a candlelit labyrinth, and contemplate the events that led to Jesus’ death on the cross. The entire experience is done in silence with the exception of softly playing music.

Complete with handbells, choir, brass ensemble, organ and you!
