The liturgy for the Three Days proclaims one dramatic story in three acts. The events of Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and Easter are best understood as one service, unfolding over the course of three days. Through this profound and transforming experience at the heart of the Christian year, we are immersed in the holy mystery of Christ’s death and resurrection and the great story of God’s saving love.
Maundy Thursday
Thursday, April 6 @ 7PM Remember the Last Supper of Jesus with music and holy communion around the Table of the Lord
Good Friday
Friday, April 7 @ 7PM Ponder the crucifixion of Jesus with prayer and music around the Cross of Christ
Easter Sunday
Sunday, April 9 @ 10AM Celebrate the Resurrection of Jesus with a festival worship service
During this time of uncertainty, we are continuing to work with our mission partners in caring for those most vulnerable. You may drop off donations for many of these organizations in the boxes outside the church office doors. Below are just a few of the organizations we partner with here at WPC.
We make promises at every child’s baptism: to support parents in raising their child in the life of Christian faith so they may come to know, love and serve Jesus. At WPC, we help provide families with the tools for a spiritual and biblical foundation as they guide their children in a life-long journey of faith.
Sunday School
Sundays @ 10am We have Sunday School classes for K-6th grade each Sunday. Families stay together in worship until after the scripture reading. At that time, children are dismissed to their age-appropriate classes.
Service Projects
We seek out hands-on mission projects for the children to actually do and have success in accomplishment. Children learn by doing and knowing why Christians serve and help people near and far.
We believe gathering together in spiritual community offers today’s young people something unique: a loving, caring and safe place to think about God, wrestle with their faith, and see how their story intersects with God’s story and hope for this world.
Youth Group
Open to all youth grades 7-12.
Making a Difference
We provide a variety of ways for youth to live out their faith in the world today. From service projects around Chicago, to week-long mission trips around the country, to international immersion mission trips, we have a history of service being an integral component of the faith journeys of our young people.
We welcome the chance to gather together for times of education and formation in all its forms: Bible studies, lectures, presentations, discussions, book clubs, and small groups. We have something for everyone at WPC. From the monthly book club to the weekly men's group to the occasional knitting circle, we've got you covered!
