Holy Week Schedule
Procession of the Palms
Sunday, March 29 | 8:00 AM and 10:00AM Services Our beautiful Palm Sunday Service celebrates Jesus’ triumphal entry in Jerusalem and marks the start of Holy Week. We start our services on Hoopes Court (outside the side entrance doors of the church) with a Procession of the Palms. We process into the church for the Service with a reading of the Passion.
Stations of the Cross
Monday, March 30 – Friday, April 3 | 10:00 AM – 6:00 PM You are welcome to pray the Stations of the Cross this Lent. This self-led, powerful 14-step prayer journey walks through Christ’s Passion and death. This moving devotion offers a chance to deepen your relationship with Jesus, reflect on his sacrifice, and find comfort in his love.
Vespers
Monday, March 30 | 7:00 PM Vesper Prayer Service features candlelight in our darkened sanctuary, soothing music, and beautiful prayers. Led by Eucharistic Lay Ministers Carol Weisel and Linda Gibeck.
Holy Eucharist with Healing Prayer
Wednesday, April 1 | 12:00 Noon Fr. John will celebrate Holy Eucharist and offer prayers for healing.
Maundy Thursday Service
April 2 | 6:30 PM Our traditional Maundy Thursday service marks the beginning of the final act of the Passion narrative. We remember Jesus sharing the Passover meal with his disciples before going to the Garden of Gethsemane. The service concludes in silence as the altar and sanctuary are stripped.
Night Watch
April 3-4 | 9:00 PM begins after the Stripping of the Altar, and will continue throughout the night until noontime on Good Friday. The Watch commemorates the time Jesus spent in the Garden of Gethsemane before he was arrested, and as he asked his disciples, “Can you not watch with me one hour?”
Parishioners volunteer to “keep watch” in our sanctuary for one hour segments so that the continuous vigil of silent prayer is maintained. To sign up for the Night Watch, please contact the church office at 410-287-5522 or sign-up after Sunday services.
Good Friday Service
April 3 | 12:00 Noon Good Friday stands at the heart of the Christian faith. On this solemn day we remember when Jesus Christ suffered and died on the cross for the salvation of the world.
