Our Redeemer's Lutheran Church

Beginning outside the sanctuary with joyful palms raised and acclamations, we will process in, moved by Christ’s coming as God’s holy messiah.  We celebrate this high point in light of his following crucifixion and death, and follow this humble king within his disciples from joy and elation, to sorrow and bewilderment.

The liturgy starts with foot-washing, followed by communion and the stripping of the altar. This is an interactive service remembering the last supper of Jesus and his disciples before his crucifixion.

Our service of on the crucifixion of Christ reflects on the tradition of Tenebrae (Shadows). In this service of darkness and candlelight, we keep watch and hear of his passion and death through Scripture, silence, and singing. This moving service is a special and well-loved tradition at Our Redeemer’s.
