Good morning. Thank you to everyone who joined us for Maundy Thursday service last night. This evening, our Good Friday service will be held at the same time at 7:00 PM.

Jesus left the throne of heaven, took on flesh and dwelt among us, knelt to wash his disciples' feet, and surrendered himself to the cross. He showed us first what it looks like to love by descending — as God who became human, God who became servant, God who became death on the Cross. On this Friday night, I want to invite you to stay in that grace, to remember it together, and to worship.

I look forward to seeing everyone together this evening for worship.

Easter at Incarnation - Palm Sunday & Holy Week Schedule

03/06/2026

Good morning everyone :)

Just last week when I checked the forecast, I thought Friday would be warm and pleasant, but it's raining quite heavily! Still, this rain is essential for new sprouts to emerge and for us to see more green around us. But the gloomy skies and thunderstorms aren't exactly the kind of scene I'd want to greet on the first Friday of March.

And... our tears feel a bit like that too. We know they're necessary, but it's not a feeling we want to face too often. Today's devotion invites us to reflect together on precisely that point. I invite you to join us. Who knows? It might just be a time when, along with the falling rain, we shed tears of healing.

Have a grace-filled Friday,
and see you later in the afternoon if you join us with FMSC!

Peace in Christ,
CJ Woo

Good morning!

Today is Ash Wednesday, and it marks the beginning of our Lenten journey together. I'm so glad you're joining me this morning. Whether you're listening at home, in your car, or wherever this finds you, I pray that these few minutes bring you a moment of stillness and reflection as we enter this sacred season.
