Good Friday Evening Tenebrae Service
It is easy to go from the celebration of Palm Sunday to the rejoicing of Easter and skip right past the cost of our sin and God’s great love that is revealed at the cross. Please join with other Oviedo Christians as we encounter God's great love demonstrated in Christ's suffering.
but that he loved us and sent his Son
as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.
1 John 4:10
The ancient Tenebrae service dates back to the early years of the church. Coming from the Latin word meaning “shadows,” Tenebrae depicts, through the extinguishing of candles and the dimming of lights, the suffering and death of Jesus.
It is a service to experience, reflect, and remember. Through the service scripture will be read, silence will invite reflection, music will engage our attention, and as we do so we walk with Jesus to his cross and look upon him in his death.

Who are You?; Mark 11:1-11

“Hosanna! Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord! "
We often see ourselves in many biblical characters—seeking healing, following imperfectly, or standing among the crowds as Jesus enters Jerusalem shouting “Hosanna!” Yet Palm Sunday reveals that while the people rightly recognized Jesus as king, they misunderstood the kind of deliverance he would bring. Expecting political victory, they missed that he came to serve, suffer, and give his life as a ransom for many. In the same way, our own expectations can keep us from fully knowing him. True faith is not about fulfilling our desires, but about entering God’s greater reality—living in his love and purpose, as Jesus transforms not just circumstances, but all creation. Hosanna! Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord.

Welcome to Oviedo Presbyterian Church
We are a family of Christ followers known for our love of Christ, love for one another, and reaching out to those in need. We value authenticity above formality, and honest relationships above token handshakes. We don't pretend to be perfect, and we don't expect that you are either.
If you just want to get lost in the crowd, we may not be the right place for you!
A church is not a building or something you attend, it is something you become a part of. If you want to be more than a number, to love and be loved, to grow in your faith, and to share your gifts and talents, we invite you to check us out.
Whether you are a seasoned saint or a questioning seeker, there is a place for you.
Our Sunday morning worship has a touch of tradition but without being stuffy. We worship in new songs of praise as well as hymns that have withstood the test of time. We preach and teach the Word of God in honest ways that connect with real life and real people. Like God’s love, we minister across the generations, rather than targeting just one. We believe that worship is something that we participate in rather than just watch.
Some of our older members dress in suits or dresses while some of the youth wear jeans. If you wear something "corporate casual" you'll fit right in. Who you are is more important that what you wear! Come as you are, we do!
