A group of local churches is joining together to sponsor a series of virtual noontime Holy Week services, all of which are open to the community.
First Baptist, First Presbyterian, First United Methodist, Shiloh, Cotton Memorial and Holy Innocents have shared Holy Week services and lunches for many years, and the tradition continues – sort of.
This year, the services will be livestreamed at www.hendersonholyweek.com, according to Dr. Ronald S. Cava, senior minister at First Baptist Church. Although last year’s events were cancelled because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the churches have had time to prepare an alternative to in-person services.
“While we still cannot have a physical gathering and share lunches, we will have services this year,” Cava said in a written statement to WIZS.
All services Monday, March 29 through Friday, April 2 at 12 noon will be live streamed and will include scripture readings, homilies, and special music.
