News Story by Cassy Benefield
Christian churches across the world celebrate Easter in diverse ways, and Spokane’s regional churches are no different.
Some church communities will include Maundy Thursday in their Holy Week services. The service commemorates the Last Supper and the washing of the disciples’ feet. Most commonly churches will host a lunch or an evening service to remember that moment in Jesus’ life.
Other churches skip a Maundy Thursday service and include a Good Friday evening service. This is a time when congregants reflect on the suffering Jesus experienced on his way to and at the cross.
Most churches will host more than one Sunday Easter service on Sunday to make room for all the guests that go to church that Holy day. This is the day the Christian community celebrates Jesus’ resurrection.
Some will also include a breakfast on Sunday or an Easter sunrise service. For some, Easter Egg Hunts, usually following the Sunday services, are peppered throughout the region.
Below is a list of the variety of denominations hosting Easter services this year. The list does not include every church in the region. If you don’t see your church listed and would like to have it added, please send your service times to Tracy Simmons at [email protected].
