As we approach the drama of Holy Week, we find Jesus with his disciples, knowing what is coming and leaving them with the command: love one another.

Let us worship.

While it’s a cafe-style family service for in-person worship this week, our online worship takes a more meditative reflection on the passage this week. In John 13 we find Jesus spending the hours before his death, in full knowledge of what is coming, washing his disciples’ feet. This is the God who in human humility sets the example of service.

Our worship this week takes us to a bit of a mismatch with the calendar – Palm Sunday seems like it’s come early. In our next stop through the gospel of John we come to Jesus’ triumphal entry to Jerusalem on a donkey, and think about what sort of king it is that the crowds (and we) want. Our prayers remember all those for whom Mothering Sunday is a difficult day.

Let us worship God.

This week our worship is a little different – rather than a reflection from Andrew, we meditate on the passage telling the riasing of Lazarus alongside depictions of the story in Art.
