Semana Santa (Holy Week) is a time in which Christians around the world are anticipating Easter by remembering the events that led up to the crucifixion and celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ on Easter Day. The Latinx Student Alliance (LSA) invites you to the bilingual service which will include worship led by Celebration and LSA, sermon led by Church of the Nazarene (COTN) pastors Olivia and Chris, and a time of fellowship and food following the service.
