WELCOME DANA BENDER, UNITED’S NEW “FAMILY, YOUTH, AND CHILDREN’S DIRECTOR!”
The big news for our whole church community is the arrival of our new Family, Youth, and Children’s Director Dana Bender. Her first day with us is Palm Sunday (April 13), and she’ll be off to great start. See what’s in store below.
Youth Lead “Tenebrae” on Maundy Thursday
United Youth, with guidance from Dana Bender and Karen Wilbanks, lead the traditional “Tenebrae” at the end of the Maundy Thursday service. As they read the story of Jesus’ last hours (the Passion), they extinguish candles until the congregation is enveloped in the shadows of that
night.
Good Friday “Creation Care”
9:30 to 11:30
All youth, children, parents, and other adults are invited to care for creation—and get the church grounds ready for Easter Sunday. Pruning, trash pickup, raking— there’s something for everyone on a beautiful April morning.
