April 13-20, 2025
For many, Holy Week is the most beloved week of the year at our church. It is beloved not merely for the beautiful music, added fellowship, or triumphant celebration, but for the way it helps fix our eyes on Jesus Christ. Our rhythm of rest and worship during Holy Week helps clear away the debris of distraction and helps remind us how central and significant the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ are. The drama of Holy Week is the center of Scripture, of history, and – because of our sin and our union with Jesus Christ – the center of our lives as Christians.
We will gather each day at PCPC, so together our hearts and minds can focus on our Lord and Savior Jesus.

Three identical services will be in the Sanctuary on Easter Sunday. Would you consider attending the 8:00 or 11:00 a.m. service to make room for guests at the 9:30 a.m. service? We will have Nursery and Preschool at 9:30 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. only. Elementary, Middle, and High School groups will not meet. We encourage families, even the little ones, to worship together at 8:00 a.m.
Parking
For Palm Sunday, Maundy Thursday Communion Service, and Easter Sunday, you may also park in the Equinox Garage at 4222 Avondale Ave (thank you to our Equinox neighbors!), the PCPC lot behind Oak Lawn West, and where permitted in the neighborhood. Please do not park in the main Equinox parking garage or surface-level lot. We will have officers, volunteers, and signs assisting each step of the way.
Easter Flower Cross
We invite all children to bring a flower to place in the large cross out in the Courtyard on Easter Sunday. This is a longstanding, tradition that our PCPC family has enjoyed for years. It’s such a beautiful reminder that He is Risen!
Please note that PCPC’s offices will be closed on Monday, April 21, following Easter.
