Easter Services

,

Please join us for our Holy Week services and for our sunrise breakfast. Please register by Wednesday for any services you plan to attend (we want to make sure we have enough bulletins and bacon for all!). For more details and to register, please visit ctkcambridge.org/holy-week.

  • Thu, 4/14, 7:30p :: Maundy Thursday Service :: a service centering on the Lord’s Supper

  • Fri, 4/15, 7:30p :: Good Friday Service :: a tenebrae service of readings and songs

  • Sun, 4/17, 10:30a :: Sunday Worship Service

We’re also in need of volunteers to help at these services. In particular, we need folks who are willing to greet at the services and a few who are willing to help set up and tear down for the Sunrise breakfast. If you’d willing to help, please contact laura@ctkcambridge.org.

New Registration

Good news! This past Sunday, we had the most people in attendance since March of 2020! We are so excited to be gathering in larger numbers again. As our attendance numbers rise, we do ask that whether you choose open seating or distanced, please register to attend the service by Saturday evening. Registering lets staff know if we have the right proportion of seats allotted for open and distanced seats.

To make the process just a touch easier, we’ve now set up registrations so that you can register for one month at a time — simply select which Sundays you plan to attend and then fill out the number of attendees for each Sunday. If you need to cancel your registration, please email Laura at laura@ctkcambridge.org.

When registering for the service, you may also register children for nursery (ages 6 months - 3 years) or children’s worship (age 4 through Grade 2). Space is limited, but wait lists are available.

Building Renovations

Building renovations and all-virtual worship

  • Sunday worship is all-virtual through March during renovations to our sanctuary.

  • Ceiling repairs and painting are nearly complete, and in the coming weeks contractors will be painting the walls, refinishing the floors, and replacing the carpets. Before new carpet can go in, we’re looking for up to 10 volunteers to help reinstall the pews on Saturday, March 27th from 9am-1pm -- if you’re willing to help, email us at deacons@ctkcambridge.org.

  • You can watch this video from the deacons to learn more about the sanctuary renovations happening over the next month and the building exterior renovations planned for later this year.

Easter Times & Services

In light of how many people would like to attend in person this Easter, the CTK staff has decided for this Sunday to have two services. However, to accommodate the schedules of the volunteers who will be serving this Sunday, we'll be changing our service time so as to have two morning services.

We will have a 9 am worship service and an 11:15 am worship service this Sunday. Registration is full for the 9am service, though you can sign up for the waiting list. There are still some spots left at the 11:15am service.

The livestream will be at 9am. We will return to our regular 10:30am service next week (Sunday, April 11th).

Here are the links for this week’s services. Please join us as we celebrate and reflect on the death and resurrection of our Lord:
