Come and Prepare Your Heart

We would love for our church family to join us for a special Maundy Thursday service on April 2 from 6:30–8PM in the chapel at CFC.
 
“Maundy” comes from the Latin word mandatum, meaning “command” or “mandate.” This word is referring to the command Jesus gave His disciples during the Last Supper: “A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you” (John 13:34). On this evening, we remember the night (Maundy Thursday) before Christ’s crucifixion (Good Friday), when He served His disciples, instituted the Lord’s Supper, and called His followers to love one another as He has loved us.
 
We want to offer this time to you as a meaningful evening designed to help us prepare our hearts for Easter. Through worship, Scripture, and Communion, we will reflect on the sacrifice of Christ and the hope we have because of the cross. It will be an intentional time for us as a church family to remember what Jesus has done for us and to turn our hearts toward the resurrection that we celebrate on Easter Sunday.
 
This time of worship should not replace our time together on Easter weekend (see service times HERE), but it will help prepare us for our time together on Easter.
