Maundy Thursday Worship Service

The Maundy Thursday Worship Service will take place on Thursday, April 6th at 7:00pm in the Sanctuary. As the Living Word of God, Jesus reflects the written word of scripture in his life and ministry on Maundy Thursday. We allow the written word of Psalm 23 to add expression to the life, passion, death, and promised resurrection as seen in the events of the Last Supper. Participating in this service is the Chancel Choir singing “In Gethsemane” by Anton Bruckner. Included in the service is a liturgical drama: “Jesus in Psalm and Sacrament” adapted and directed by Sarah Solie. The cast includes: Justine McBurney, Evan Leone, Jonathan Pryor, Bonnie Chiappetta, and Richard Heun. Also included is Genesis: a professional vocal quintet reflecting the initiative of Caldwell Broadway Arts – “Were You There” by Jay Rouse. Join us in person, or via livestream on The First Presbyterian Church at Caldwell Facebook Page or on Livestream.com.
