Holy Week...Take the JourneyThere are worship opportunities every day of Holy Week this week, including the intensely meaningful Tenebrae service on Good Friday. See the schedule for all the worship opportunities, including those of Holy Week, here. Also, don't forget about the prayer log that's always available to inform your prayers for students, faculty, staff and the greater Calvin community. And you can listen to chapel live each day from 10:00-10:20 a.m.
