Maundy Thursday Service ONLINE ONLY

Due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) emergency, the Shadyside Presbyterian Church building and offices are open on a limited basis. Click here to learn more.

While we cannot be together on-site for any activities, we invite you to join us for online worship on Maundy Thursday, April 1.

Note: This service will incorporate an online celebration of the Sacrament of Communion, which has been approved by both the Presbyterian Church (USA) and the Session of Shadyside Presbyterian Church. In order to participate at home, please read the invitation, along with suggestions for preparation.

We are glad to share with you a live video webcast of our service of worship available on the live webcast page of the church website so that you may join us remotely at 7:00 p.m. on Maundy Thursday. Other worship documents, including the bulletin (.pdf format), also may be accessed from the live webcast page or the worship archive.

On Maundy Thursday, April 1, the Reverend Todd E. Leach will preach. Music will be offered by soprano Kathy Linger and Chatham Baroque.

We regret that we cannot gather in-person for worship, but we hope you will gather with us in spirit.

We thank you for your patience and understanding as we follow this challenging course of action, but one we know to be responsible and safer for our congregation and our community.
