Tenebrae: Service of Shadows
We’ll begin our evening with a soup and bread supper in our social hall at 6:00pm. Our Tenebrae service with communion will start at 7:00pm. The name Tenebrae is the Latin word for “darkness” or “shadows”. This service is centered on scripture readings and the gradual extinguishing of candles and other lights until a single candle remains. Towards the end of the service, this candle is hidden, typifying the apparent victory of the forces of evil. At the very end, a loud noise is made, symbolizing the earthquake at the time of the resurrection (Matthew 28:2), the hidden candle is restored to its place, and by its light all depart in silence.
We’ll celebrate the resurrection of our Lord with joyful sounds of the trumpet and singing! All are welcome!
