The National Day of Prayer (36 U.S.C. § 119) is an annual day of observance held on the first Thursday of May, designated by the United States Congress, when people are asked “to turn to God in prayer and meditation”. Each year, the president signs a proclamation, encouraging all Americans to pray on this day.
You will have that opportunity at the 2012 National Day of Prayer Service for Utah on May 3, 2012 at 7:00PM in the UVU Student Center Ballroom.
All persons, regardless of religious affiliation or faith are invited to come.

The first Friday of every month our church transforms itself into a sacred space of art. On April 6th, we will be displaying Easter Symbols from 6-9 pm. If you have some that you want to show, please have them at the church by 3pm so they can be set up.
At noon join our friends at St. Mary’s Episcopal for a Good Friday service and at 6:30 we will be worshiping with the Art Stroll crowd in our own sanctuary.

Two of Provo’s oldest and long-standing congregations will share a very special service on Thursday evening, April 5, at 6:30 pm.
The Maundy Thursday service features a foot-washing rite and Holy Communion. This represents Jesus sitting down with his friends for the biggest holiday of the Jewish year to remember the people’s way through the Egyptian Desert. It starts out as a joyous occasion until Jesus announces that one of his friends is going to betray him. Drama unfolds as in everybody’s life. Sinners preferred, Saints welcome, too. The name of the day, Maundy Thursday, comes from its ancient Latin title. The word mandamus in Latin means to command, and recalls Jesus’ commandment to his friends that they share this meal in remembrance of him.

This is what it looks like when these two churches get together, like on Palm Sunday:
