Holy Week & Easter

Instead of our traditional Maundy Thursday service, this year Highlands UMC will observe a Passover seder. All are welcome at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday, April 9 for an experience of the Jewish tradition in which Jesus lived, followed by a brief Communion service when we acknowledge that the Last Supper of Jesus' life was a Passover meal.

ALL kinds of families are invited to our Easter Egg Hunt on Saturday, April 11, beginning at 9:30 a.m. Children will begin by decorating bags in which to collect their eggs, and then will divide up by age to search throughout the historic Highlands UMC building. Please contact the church office if you would like to know more about this event.

And of course, everyone is welcome to come and celebrate the Resurrection with us on Easter Sunday, April 12. Worship is at 10:00 a.m., and includes choir, organ, Communion, lilies, a thoughtful message to connect with our lives today, and the Hallelujah Chorus. The sanctuary is usually quite full on Easter, so you may want to come a little early to find parking and a good seat.

Highlands UMC is a welcoming and affirming, intergenerational community of faith where ALL people are welcome in worship and at the Communion table. We would love to get to know you and walk together a ways on the journey of faith!
