Paskamansett - "Place of the Broken Rocks." This is the native American name for the river in Dartmouth, Massachusetts. Five churches which roughly straddle the Paskamansett River adopted this name for an annual Good Friday service in 2006. We see the cross of Jesus Christ as the place where the Rock was broken, broken for us. Paul wrote, "And the rock was Christ." Our whole faith is built upon the broken Rock. He said, "Take eat, this is My body, which is broken for you." Churches involved currently: Dartmouth Bible Church, Acoaxet Chapel, Emmaus Christian Church, Pacific Union Congregational Church, and Lighthouse Assembly of God.
