  • Maundy Thursday, Service of Shadows, April 2, 7:00 p.m.  Maundy is derived from the words of John 13:33. In those last hours, Jesus said to his disciples "a new commandment I give to you, that you love one another." Every year on Maundy Thursday, we remember these final words of Jesus to his disciples as we partake in communion and reflect on Scripture. Childcare for nursery aged children (nursery 1-5 classes in Decatur; nursery 1-6 classes in Madison) is available, but please register your children in nursery classes so our Children's Ministry staff can plan accordingly. You can register them for Maundy Thursday online or at the Hub. Click here for DC Maundy Childcare. Click here for MC Maundy Childcare
