And Jesus in the garden of Gethsemane, where these events occurred. This day is a significant one for Holy Week, the week of Easter.

Good Friday is a solemn Christian observance that commemorates the crucifixion and death of Jesus Christ, marking the ultimate sacrifice for humanity's sins before his resurrection on Easter Sunday, symbolizing victory over sin and death.

Our worship is a blend of traditional and contemporary styles, and our music combines modern worship songs and traditional hymns. The Bible is preached in the context of its origins and of our lives right now, cultivating wisdom for us and our world today. We do our best to use inclusive language in our worship music, as well as in our communal prayers, congregational participation, and scripture readings.
