Realizing that many people, especially busy families, struggle to make it to church regularly on Sunday mornings, First Reformed UCC is offering a creative way to worship during Holy Week, the days leading up to Easter Sunday.

First Reformed invites the public to come to “The Stations of Holy Week on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday of Holy Week, April 14-16, 2022. This is a walk-through, multi-sensory worship experience for all ages. After entering the sanctuary, you will go to different interactive prayer stations that depict scenes from the last week of Jesus’ life.

Prayer stations are 5-10 minute prayer activities that invite the “pray-er” to read, listen, and reflect as you engage with art, movement, and your other senses. Sitting still through an hour-long service can be tough for many of us, but walking through a series of interactive stations can help both adults and children creatively engage our bodies, mind, and our emotions.
