On the Thursday before Easter, Bishop Janes United Methodist Church invites the community to a Maundy Thursday Dinner Communion — one of the most intimate and meaningful services of the Christian year.
The evening brings together a shared meal of soup, salad, sandwiches, and dessert with the celebration of communion, honoring the way Jesus first shared this sacrament with his disciples around a table. It is a service of warmth, reflection, and community — and everyone is genuinely welcome to participate, including receiving communion. No church membership or prior experience is required.
Doors open at 6:20 PM for those who would like to be seated before the service begins at 6:30 PM.

Bishop Janes United Methodist Church joins Basking Ridge Presbyterian Church for a combined Good Friday choral service — a powerful expression of faith that crosses denominational lines on one of the most solemn evenings of the Christian year.
The service is contemplative and music-centered, appropriate for older children and adults. It is an evening to sit with the weight of the cross and the hope that lies beyond it — in the company of neighbors from across the Basking Ridge faith community.
No prior church experience is necessary. Come as you are.

As the sun rises on Easter morning, Bishop Janes United Methodist Church gathers at Evergreen Cemetery in Basking Ridge for a sunrise service.
We come as the women came — to a place where we only expect to encounter death — and find instead that death has lost its sting. We enter in the darkness of early morning and leave with the Light journeying with us. It is an experience that stays with people long after Easter morning has passed.
Easter Sunday worship continues at 9:30 AM at Bishop Janes United Methodist Church, 22 South Finley Avenue, Basking Ridge. All are welcome at both services.

Easter Sunday is the most joyful morning of the Christian year — and at Bishop Janes United Methodist Church in Basking Ridge, we love to celebrate it well.
Join us at 9:30 AM for a festive worship service filled with the things that make Easter morning feel like Easter morning: the sanctuary dressed in spring flowers, special music from our Chancel Choir and Bell Choir, and a children's moment that makes the story of resurrection accessible and alive for our youngest worshippers. Whether you are a person of deep and longtime faith, someone finding their way back, or simply curious about what this day means and why it matters — you are genuinely and warmly welcome here.
For those who want to begin Easter morning even earlier, our Easter Sunrise Service is held at 6:30 AM at Evergreen Cemetery in Basking Ridge — an outdoor experience in which we gather in the darkness and leave with the light.
Come as you are. Bring someone you love. He is risen.
Parking: Please park in the lot on South Maple Avenue, directly across from the Basking Ridge Public Library.
