MAUNDY THURSDAY SERVICE
THURSDAY, APRIL 2
7pm | The Sanctuary
We remember the night Jesus shared a final meal with his disciples and gave the command to love as he loves. Join us as we share communion and experience Tenebrae—a “service of shadows” where the extinguishing of light draws us into the weight and wonder of the cross.
THURSDAY, APRIL 2 SUNDAY, APRIL 5
Around the Clock | Wilson Chapel
Spend an hour in the quiet presence of the living Jesus as you prepare to celebrate the fact that he is indeed alive. Schedule a time by clicking on the QR code.
GOOD FRIDAY SERVICE

We join the Buckhead Community of churches (Church at Wieuca, Second-Ponce de Leon Baptist, Peachtree Road United Methodist, New Hope A.M.E. and Cathedral of Christ the King) to share in hosting Good Friday Services. This year’s service will be hosted at Second-Ponce de Leon, with participation from all the churches.
Just as families keep in touch about joys and sorrows, our church family at Peachtree wants to do the same. During your prayers this week, we ask you to lift up these people to God.
