Holy week 2023

Passion Week has been observed by Christians throughout history for purposes of ministry, reflection, and celebration.

We hope the sacrificial love and resurrection power of Jesus feels especially near to you this year!

*This event is a collaboration between many local churches as we gather in under the name of Christ in unity for worship and prayer over our communities and world. As our second community worship night this year we have rallied around the simple values:

  • Oneness > Onliness: No single church, no single team, no single preacher- just one Lord, one faith, one Spirit binding and leading His people to worship together
  • Everyone with a gift, everyone to receive: we worship together, creed together, pray together, proclaim together, so minister each one to another
  • Simple proclamations: Scripture, Song, Story

Teams from Beulah will be headed out into the community to bless local businesses and other churches with the delight of edible arrangements sponsored by our Women's Ministry! If you'd like to help bring the sweet love of Christ to our neighborhood speak to one of the pastors or call the church office anytime!

Wednesday

Teams from Beulah will be heading out to serve communion to those from our church who aren't as mobile as they used to be. If you'd like the pastors or others to share communion with you sometime on Wednesday, April 5, please call the church office to arrange that visit.

Maundy Thursday

The traditional Passover Meal invited participants into a time of reflection on where they'd been in life with God and where it was that He'd promised to take them. Join us at 6:00pm for a special time learning how God's faithfulness is fully demonstrated in Jesus, and how salvation is accomplished through Him!


Please RSVP here before 8:30am on Tuesday 4/4 so we can provide adequate materials! (Note, the form says a google sign-in is required to save form progress, no sign-in is required to submit the form)


A Good Friday Funeral

Our 6:30pm Good Friday service is an original, interactive dramatic service set as a modern funeral for Jesus prior to resurrection. You'll hear from friends and family like Andrew, Lazarus, Mary Magdalene, and enjoy remarks from Nichodemas (Dr. Jon Swanson) among others in their moving tributes and questions.


If you'd like to add to the environment come as you would for a close friend's funeral.

Making TIme,
Going without

Tradition tells us that believers throughout history have often taken the time between Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday to observe the silence and stillness of a world that was once again without a Savior by fasting- leaning into the absence and feeling the void of separation once again- reminding ourselves just how much we need the Lord and making the triumph of resurrection and His return to our midst all the sweeter!


As a church this year we are welcoming the opportunity of going without as well, so that we too may also notice His ever-continuous presence in our lives and our great, daily need all the more. As a church we're observing an Easter Fast from sundown on Good Friday until sunrise on Easter Sunday, but what you may go without is up to you! Some ideas we suggest considering are:

  • Sugar
  • Salt
  • Everything but Water and Broth
  • Data/Wifi on your Smartphone
  • All Screens Everywhere
  • News Shows/Programs
  • Video Games
  • Meat
  • Secular Music
  • Driving

We're also spending time over the entirety of Saturday in prayer for our neighbors, community, nation, and families. You can help us reach that goal by signing up for a prayer slot here!


Resurrection Sunday

Join us for donuts, fruit, and coffee at 9am before our Resurrection Sunday worship service at 10:15! We'll hear all about why this day is the most important day in history and how it can be the most important day in your story too!
