Easter Weekend at COOL

Maundy Thursday:
This is the day Jesus celebrated the Passover with his 12 closest disciples, instituted the practice of remembering his death in the Lord's Supper (Holy Communion, Mass or the Eucharist) and taught them about servanthood before being betrayed by Judas, denied by Peter, tried three times (by the Jewish Authorities, by Pilate the Roman Governor, and by Herod the puppet King).
Tonight we shall have supper at 1930 Pridy Road, followed by the movie, "To End all Wars", an account of self-sacrifice and service set in the Japanese POW camps on the Burma railway.

Good Friday:
This is the day we commemorate Jesus' death on the cross for us.
Ecumenical service at Mark Isfeld Highschool at 10 am.
Tenebrae service at 7 pm at Comox Community Baptist Church, Anderton Road, Comox.

Easter Sunday:
Optional morning services at 10 am at Living Word Episcopal Church on Mission Hill in Courtenay or 10:30 am at Comox Community Baptist Church.
COOL will have an Easter Communion Service at 5 pm at 1930 Pridy Rd in Comox, followed by supper and week six of Christianity Explored: Jesus- his Resurrection.

Have a blessed Easter!
