Holy Communion & Tenebrae Service
The Service of Tenebrae, meaning "darkness" is a prolonged meditation on Christ's suffering. Scripture readings trace the story of Christ's passion, music portrays the pathos and the power of silence and darkness suggest the drama of Good Friday.
On Thursday night of what we call Holy Week, Jesus instituted communion, saying, "Do this in remembrance of me." Holy Communion will be provided for all who follow Christ.
Throughout the service, the light of candles will be snuffed out, symbolizing the attempt by the enemy, the power of darkness, to extinguish the Light of the World, Jesus Christ.
