Holy Week & Easter Schedule

BySt Mary Anne Admin

Palm Sunday, April 13, 2025 A Procession of Palms begins on Hoopes Court at 8AM and 10AM. 

We celebrate a two-part service. First, we read the Liturgy of the Palms outside the Sanctuary and then process into the Church waving our palm branches and singing. Next, we have the Liturgy of the Word. It is a dramatic reading of Jesus Last Supper, his betrayal, his trial and crucifixion.

 

Holy Wednesday, April 16, 2025 Labyrinth Walk; Parish Center; 4-7PM

Walk the Labyrinth in our Parish Hall anytime between 4-7PM on Wednesday. We offer the opportunity to focus more deeply on Jesus’ life, and our own journey, as we walk a labyrinth with prayer meditation.

 At 6:30 PM, we have our Maundy Thursday service with music.

Stripping of the Altar is at the conclusion of the Maundy Thursday service.
