Holy Week

Maundy Thursday Seder Dinner 

We invite you to enjoy a dinner and presentation given by Jews for Jesus on April 18th at 6pm in Zirbel Hall. The topic will be Model Seder. Jews for Jesus is an agency that proclaims that Jesus is the Messiah of Israel and Savior of the world. The late Moishe Rose, a Jew who has believed in Jesus for over 35 years, founded the organization. However, Dr. Rosen was quick to point out that he did not "start" Jews for Jesus. "Jews for Jesus began about 2,000 years ago, around 32 C.E., give or take a year. Jesus' first disciples were Jewish, and there have been some Jewish people who have believed in him ever since."

Please sign up at the table on the patio or call the church office at 562/493.2553 for more information. Donation of $5 per person when you sign up.
