Cherry Log Christian Church (Disciples of Christ)

The event occurs at Cherry Log Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in Cherry Log, GA on the Thursday of Holy Week - March 20th, and an explanation of it all will be helpful to those in the community who may be unfamiliar with this religious observance. If you could possibly retain the title of the article as it is, or at least edit to reflect the gist of it, we'd appreciate it. The article explains what Maundy Thursday is and what the musical composition, "Requiem," is all about.

Easter Sunrise Service & Breakfast

Please join us Easter Morning at 7:00am at Hinton Center for our Sunrise Service. We will serve a light breakfast after the service.

Holy Week Services at All Saints Lutheran

All Saints Lutheran Church will have several worship services during Holy Week beginning with Palm Sunday at 10:30 am. Palm Sunday will focus on the transition from the celebratory entrance into Jerusalem to the mournful and agonizing walk toward the cross.

For Maundy Thursday, we will worship as we share in a Seder Meal in the remembrance of the occasion in which Christ instituted His Holy Supper beginning at 6:00 pm.

Then, we will proceed through the darkness of Good CHURCH Friday, as we pause to encounter the agony and despair that surrounded our Lord and Savior as he bore the full burden of our sinfulness.

Finally, we will walk in the newness of life as the light of the Resurrection bursts forth on Easter Sunday with two services- Easter Morning at 8 am and Easter Festival with Holy Communion at 10:30 am. The Festival service will end with our adult choir singing Handel's Hallelujah Chorus.

All Saints Lutheran Church is located on Hwy. 515, 4 ½ miles east of the Blairsville Post Office. Please call the church office if you have questions about our services at 706 745-7777.
