Holy Week Worship Service Schedule
In addition to our regular Sunday morning worship offerings, we will be gathering for several special worship services throughout Holy Week. We hope you'll make plans to join us.
The Office of Tenebrae
Wednesday, April 5, 2023, 7:00 PM
Join us at 7 p.m. on Wednesday in Holy Week for an adaptation of ancient monastic liturgy that features the slow extinguishment of candles and the haunting beauty of chanted psalms and laments. Tenebrae, Latin for “darkness,” is prayed as the candles in the church are extinguished one by one until the church is shrouded in darkness.
Maundy Thursday
Thursday, April 6, 2023, 7:00 PM
Join us at 7 p.m. for an interactive Maundy Thursday service that includes ritual foot washing and Holy Eucharist, followed by the stripping of the altar and a procession of the sacrament to an altar of repose.
Good Friday: The Three Hours
Friday, April 7, 2023, 12:00 PM
Join us at noon on April 7 for The Three Hours—a service where we stand at the foot of Jesus' cross to lament the suffering that violence produces and to receive again the promise of God’s undying love for us.
Good Friday: Stations of the Cross
Friday, April 7, 2023, 6:15 PM
This service invites us to trace the final steps of Jesus. As we come to each station, we stop, pray, read scripture, and contemplate the walk of Jesus to the cross.
The Good Friday Liturgy
Friday, April 7, 2023, 7:00 PM
Please join us at 7 p.m. for a service that includes prayers, the Passion of John, and the veneration of the cross.
Holy Saturday Service
Saturday, April 8, 2023, 10:00 AM
Please join us at 10 a.m. on Holy Saturday for a brief service of remembrance as we keep watch at the place of Jesus' burial.
The Great Vigil
Saturday, April 8, 2023, 8:00 PM
Join us at 8 p.m. on Holy Saturday. This service begins in the Memorial Garden entirely in darkness, illumined by the kindling of new fire on the Paschal Candle and telling of God’s redeeming acts in history, followed by Baptism and Holy Eucharist.
