Holy Week is Here!

Pastor's Ponderings

Dear Glen Mar,

You can pick up your Palms for Palm Sunday on Saturday 3/27 anytime from 10-1 pm at the church…stop on by and look for a smiling (masked) pastor! If you miss that “window” we’ll have a container of palms for pickup as part of our outdoor self-guided prayer walk, which will be “open” anytime during the day from 1 pm on Saturday, 3/27 to 7 pm on April 3.

You’ll want to experience this amazing and powerful guided prayer walk. There are prayer stations and wonderful art done by our very own Glen Mar family. Come with your family or on your own as you follow Jesus’ footsteps to the cross. You’ll get materials with scripture to read, questions to ponder or discuss as a family, and prayers. Again, the Walk will be available any time during the day from March 27 (after 1 PM) to April 3.

Pick up a Prayer Walk booklet outside the ELC entrance or use the online version: https://glenmarumc.org/worship/holy-week-prayer-walk/walk-guide/

You can also sign up for the Family Experience on Saturday, March 27, 10 AM – 1 PM.
The Family Experience includes supplies and instructions to create “Resurrection Eggs” – something to touch and feel – as you journey along the path, plus staff on hand to get you started.
