Please join the Caradoc Presbyterian congregation in their Maundy Thursday service partaking with the choir in: “In Calvary’s Shadow”: A Tenebrae Service on April 17 at 7:30 pm.
“In Calvary’s Shadow” is a deeply moving service of penitence and forgiveness. It invites the faithful to experience Jesus’ journey from betrayal through crucifixion with a tightly woven tapestry of dramatic scripture readings, choir vocals and congregational singing, an arrangement of spirituals and gospel hymns as well as newly composed music.
Central to both the title and the liturgy is the ritual extinguishing of seven candles, leaving the church in total darkness except for the Christ Candle.
After a period of quiet meditation while sitting in Calvary’s shadow, God’s people exit the church in silence.
