Good Friday

First Baptist observes Good Friday in several different ways.  We offer a meditation service, a soup and salad luncheon and the sanctuary is open for meditation and reflection.

Throughout Jesus’ life there were those times he went off by himself to spend some time alone with God. On Good Friday, the day we in faith feel observance we remember the crucifixion of our Lord, the sanctuary of our church will be open from 9 AM to 3 PM for private prayer and reflection. In the quiet somberness of this unadorned room except for the dropped cross and the linen table cloth and chalice on the communion table we invite you to spend time apart with God.

You might use the time to simply sit for ten or fifteen minutes, or to read the passion narratives from the Gospels, or to pray for those who have been victimized or marginalized by the sins of the world. It is a time apart, a time spent in silence, a time with God.
