What is Holy Week?
Holy Week is the week leading up to Easter Sunday. It is a time of remembrance and reflection on Jesus' final days - from His entry into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, His crucifixion on Good Friday, and His resurrection on Easter Sunday.
At LVfirst, we have been journeying through the book of Philippians throughout this season of Lent - looking at the way that Jesus flips the script on how we see and experience the world around us. Through His death and resurrection, Jesus flipped the script on death itself and created a way for us to be reconciled to God through Him.
This year, as we journey through Holy Week, we will be continuing these reflections as we remember Jesus' ministry on Earth, as we mourn His death on the cross, and as we celebrate His resurrection. We hope you'll join us for each of our Holy Week services as we finish our journey to Easter together!
Palm Sunday (FUNday) - April 13, 2025
Palm Sunday marks Jesus' entry into Jerusalem. This service reflects the celebrations of the people as Jesus entered Jerusalem with crowds of people laying the cloaks along the road and waving palm branches in the air.
We have two special services lined up this Sunday to celebrate Palm Sunday. Read our Palm FUNday blog to find out more information about what services will look like this Palm Sunday.
Maundy Thursday - April 17, 2025
On Maundy Thursday, we have a special service of music and meditations to commemorate the Last Supper where Jesus instituted the sacrament of Holy Communion.
Music is led by our outstanding LVfirst Chancel Choir, and the service ends with the traditional stripping of the altar. This is an incredible and moving service. If you haven't attended our Maundy Thursday service before, we would highly encourage you to join us on Thursday, April 17th at 7PM in the Sanctuary.

Good Friday - April 18, 2025
This year, we are partnering with Lawrenceville First Baptist Church and New City Church to host a Good Friday service at our historic campground.
This will be a great opportunity to come together with a community of believers to acknowledge Jesus' ultimate sacrifice for all of us.
