living among the dead?
He is not here;
He has been raised. “

Adult Cantata: THE WEEPING TREE!
Good Friday, April 14th 7:00p.m. in the sanctuary
Join us Good Friday evening as our choir and guest orchestral musicians share the good news
of the gospel as we remember the passion of Jesus and the power of the cross. This service
of music and message testifies to the timeless truth of grace and redemption.
This year’s cantata, The Weeping Tree, allows us to focus on the cross through a service called
Tenebrae. Tenebrae is an ancient Christian Good Friday service that makes use of gradually
diminishing light reminding us of the darkness (physical & spiritual) associated with the death of
Jesus on Good Friday. The word "tenebrae" comes from a Latin word meaning "shadows” and
is about the darkness of this day.
The service concludes in darkness and worshipers then leave in silence to ponder the impact
of Christ's death and await the coming Resurrection. Invite a friend or a co-worker and join us!
Community Sunrise
Easter Service
7:00 a.m., April 16th at the TUMC Ballfield
Join us (and millions of Christians around the world) as we greet the Easter
morn and hear the wonderful resurrection message of Jesus’ victory over sin
and death. This year we will join with other churches in our community for
this special service. While it might be early, you don’t want to miss this pow-
erful time of worship. A light continental breakfast will be provided following
the sunrise service.
Easter Morning Worship Service
9:00 Alive and 11:00 services
There is no more important service in the Christian year than Easter. The
good news of Jesus Christ’s resurrection is the foundation for our faith and
the source of our hope. Invite a neighbor, friend or co-worker and come help
us sing the joyous hymns of new life and victory over death! Experience the
joy of this glorious day as we hear again the amazing words of how the “stone
has been rolled away!”

Sometimes all you need is for someone to be there, even if
they can’t solve your problems. Just knowing there is
someone who cares makes all the difference.
