Holy Week (Mar 28 - Apr 3, 2021) begins with Palm Sunday and includes Holy Monday, Holy Tuesday, Holy Wednesday, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and Holy Saturday. As we focus on the story of Holy Week we remember the dark before the dawn of the resurrection, and the journey to the cross. This reminds us that even though things seem lost, Christ has won!

Maundy Thursday remembers the Last Supper where Jesus and the disciples celebrated the Passover. The complexity of this day - looking back to the faithfulness of God through the Old Testament, and looking forward to the events of Good Friday - gives a tension of heaviness and joy that carries over all of Holy Week. As you reflect and rejoice, use these songs in worship!
