As we approach Holy Week, we are grateful for opportunities to gather in worship, reflection, and community—both within our own congregation and alongside our neighbours in faith.

This year, we are delighted to share that City View United Church has invited our congregation to join them for special Lent and Holy Week services. This is a meaningful opportunity to come together in shared worship during this sacred time.

Joint Services at City View United Church (6 Epworth Ave.):

• Maundy Thursday – April 2 at 7:00 p.m.
• Good Friday – April 3 at 10:30 a.m.

City View has also warmly invited members of Carleton Memorial to participate in these services by reading Scripture, offering prayers, or contributing in other ways. If you feel called to take part, please contact the church office at admin@cmuc.ca.

Services at Carleton Memorial United Church:

• Palm Sunday – March 29 at 10:30 a.m.
• Easter Sunday – April 5 at 10:30 a.m.

We look forward to marking Palm Sunday and celebrating the joy of Easter together as a congregation.
