EASTER morning is a time of joy! Join us at 9AM for our Family Service, or 10AM for our Choral Eucharist for the biggest celebration of the church year!

Join us for a celebration of the Great Vigil of Easter, a service that begins in darkness and ends with everlasting light.

Join us at 9:00am this morning for a short service in observation of Holy Saturday - a day of quiet and mourning and hope.

Please join us this evening for our Good Friday Liturgy service with Veneration of the Cross.

Meet us in the sanctuary at 12:15pm as we remember Christ’s walk along the Via Dolorosa (way of suffering).

WE INVITE YOU to join us this evening for a celebration of Maundy Thursday beginning at 7:30pm

The word, “agape,” is the Greek word used in the New Testament for the highest and broadest kind of self-giving Love, the kind of Love that is our source, our true life in this life and our eternal reality. We have no word capable of describing the God who is Love in any language, but agape calls attention to the limitless and overflowing fullness of Divine Love—Love Incarnate, who suffered death on a cross.

An Agape Meal, or “Love Feast” as it is also called, is an ancient tradition of table fellowship, but is not the same as our celebration of the Eucharist. Join us at 6:30pm in the Parish Hall to see what it’s all about. Then stay for our Maundy Thursday service of Holy Eucharist.

Join us at 6:30pm for our Tenebrae service (Latin for “darkness” or “shadows”) from The Book of Occasional Services. In the explanation of the service, we are told “this service provides an extended meditation upon, and a prelude to, the events in our Lord’s life between the Last Supper and the Resurrection.”
