Maundy Thursday Agape Feast

When: Thursday, April 17, 2025, at 6:00 PM

Where: Upstairs Dining Room

On Maundy Thursday, we will gather for a special Agape Feast, a simple meal shared in fellowship as we remember the Last Supper. The word "Agape" means selfless love, and this meal is a symbolic act of love and communion with one another. As we partake in this meal, we reflect on Christ's command to love one another, as He loved us. All are welcome to join us for this meaningful time together.

Good Friday Service

When: Friday, April 18, 2025, at 7:30 PM

Where: The Sanctuary

We will observe Good Friday with a joint service with Northshore Unitarian Universalist Church. This service will be a time of reflection and solemn remembrance as we mark the crucifixion of Jesus. Please join us for this powerful and contemplative service as we enter into the depths of the story of our salvation.

Easter Sunday Worship

When: Sunday, April 20, 2025, at 10:00 AM

Where: The Sanctuary

Celebrate the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ with us on Easter Sunday! The service will be a joyful celebration of Christ's victory over death and a time of hope and renewal. We look forward to worshiping together in this season of resurrection.

We hope you can join us for these special services as we observe the sacred days of Holy Week and celebrate the hope of Easter!

Sundays at 4PM in the library

Book Study

Join us Sundays at 4pm in the library. Our current book is the groundbreaking work The Gnostic Gospels by Elaine Pagels. This fascinating book delves into the discovery of ancient Christian texts hidden for centuries in the Egyptian desert, shedding new light on the early Christian movement. Pagels explores the diversity of beliefs in the early church, the struggles over authority, and the profound questions these texts raise about faith, spirituality, and the nature of God.

Why join us?

Challenge and Expand Your Understanding: Discover how early Christians wrestled with questions that still resonate today—about Jesus, the nature of divine authority, and what it means to live a life of faith.

Engage in Thoughtful Conversation: This isn’t just a history lesson. It’s an opportunity to reflect on how these ancient writings can speak to our modern spiritual journeys.

Build Community: Share insights, ask big questions, and connect with others in meaningful dialogue.

No prior knowledge is needed—just a curious mind and an open heart. Whether you’ve been part of our discussions before or are looking for a new way to engage, we’d love for you to join us.

Suffering and Grace:

A video reflection by Pastor Quincy

People tell us all the time that God will never give us more than we can handle. Is that true? Is that really the story of the Bible? What do we do when life or events seem like more than we can handle and where do we find God in those moments?

Highland Park Presbyterian Church is more than a congregation—we’re a community! No matter your age or background, we invite you and your family to come as you are and explore your faith with us
