Christian Seder Meal

Maundy Thursday, April 2, 2026
5:30pm sharp
Concludes in time to attend the 7:00pm Maundy Thursday service

Join us for a guided Christian Seder Meal as we explore the Passover and its fulfillment in Jesus Christ through Scripture, traditional ceremonial foods, reflection, and a potluck dinner. This is a meaningful and family-friendly Holy Week gathering that helps us see more deeply God’s saving work from the first Passover to Christ, our Passover Lamb.

For more than 3,400 years, God’s people have kept this meal of remembrance. Jesus Himself shared this meal with His disciples and revealed its fulfillment in His own saving death and resurrection. As we gather during Holy Week, we step into that long story of deliverance, promise, and grace.

What to Expect

The evening will include:

• Scripture readings and guided reflection
• Traditional ceremonial foods and drinks connected to the Passover story
• A potluck dinner shared together
• Family-friendly participation, including parts designed especially for children
• A welcoming format for both first-time participants and returning guests

We will begin promptly at 5:30pm and finish in time for those who would like to attend the Maundy Thursday service at 7:00pm.

A Note About the Potluck

This evening includes a potluck dinner, but no one needs to bring food in order to attend. If bringing a dish to share would not be joyful or convenient, please simply come and enjoy the Seder with us. We will make sure there is plenty of food.

Who Is Invited?

Everyone is welcome. This is very much a family event, and children are encouraged to participate.
