We’ll be honest—we’re a little late getting this out this year. 💛
Some of these events have already taken place, but we still wanted to share what’s happening across our community as we continue through Holy Week.

There are several meaningful opportunities still ahead to gather, reflect, and prepare our hearts for Easter. ✝️

👉 Take a look at the list below and join in where you can!

We are grateful for the many churches across Finney County coming together to share the hope of Christ during this season.

Let’s finish this week strong—leaning into prayer, reflection, and celebration of the resurrection.
