Does your church do special services leading up to Easter? I'm not all that familiar with how other churches celebrate but Catholics have Holy Week. Holy Thursday we celebrate the Last Supper and do a washing of the feet ceremony, Good Friday we adore the cross and focus on Jesus being crucified, Holy Saturday is a super long mass at night (starts at 8pm) with a ton of readings, baptizing new Catholics, honoring all the saints, and then it ends with Jesus rising, and then of course there is Easter Sunday. Just curious how other denominations celebrate.
