Tenebrae Service: Kenly United Methodist Church. A Tenebrae service consists of passages are read as candles in the sanctuary are gradually extinguished. The service ends in complete darkness. It is a most inspiring service. Let’s join together as we commemorate the death, burial of our Savior and the darkness before the dawn of Resurrection Sunday.
