Holy Week
Palm Sunday (April 2) services open Holy Week, with the Reading of the Passion, and a silent departure from worship. As we are able, we will form a procession to remember Jesus’ triumphant entry into Jerusalem, and then the betrayal, trial, and crucifixion that followed so quickly. Services: 9 a.m. at St. John’s; 11 a.m. at St Patrick’s. In-Person and accessible online.
Maundy Thursday (April 6), in remembrance of Jesus’ modeling servanthood even until his last hour, we will gather for a simple meal and readings, of tending each other by following Jesus’ practice of foot-washing, and then the stripping of the altar that symbolizes his arrest and imprisonment. Services: Noon at St. Patrick’s; 6:30 p.m. at St John’s.
Good Friday (April 7) We will gather at Noon at St John's, to pray through the Solemn Collects, and to venerate the Cross which was the means of Our Lord’s death. That evening, St Patrick’s service is at 6:30 p.m, with the same service, presented in the midst of candles lit against the gathering gloom. In-Person and the 6:30 p.m. is accessible online.
St John's will be open for meditation and prayer from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m..
