Easter is Coming!

Everything about our community flows from the Easter feast: singing, dancing, praying, listening, eating. Our church's life is made possible by the power of Jesus' resurrection. We hope that you will come and share the joy of the resurrection with us, and all the services that prepare us to welcome that new life in our lives. Here's more information about our services.
  • Palm Sunday, April 9 at 10:30 AM. There is one service only on Palm Sunday, where we walk through the neighborhood, carrying palms and singing our hearts out. The day before we gather to make the church ready for Holy Week, cleaning and hanging huge palms above the altar. Because of County Health guidelines, we will not have breakfast this year.
  • Maundy Thursday, April 14 at 7:00 PM.  We gather to celebrate the Eucharist and take turns washing each other's feet. Because of County Health guidelines, we will not have supper this year.
  • Good Friday, April 15 at 7:00 PM - Our choir begins the Vespers of the Triumph of the Cross with a choral prelude. Then we hear the story of Christ's dark night of suffering and death. Finally, we process to the altar, where the icon of Christ's burial is placed and lovingly lay down our own gifts of flowers.
  • The Great Vigil of Easter, April 16 at 8 PM - The Queen of Feasts comes at last! Beginning with a vigil of readings and songs, we make our way outside and process around the church, calling down saints from every generation to come and rejoice with us in the Easter Feast. The Eucharist follows - with lots of singing and dancing. The feasting continues after the liturgy outdoors with food and drink for all. Bring your dancing shoes!
  • Easter Day Baptism and Eucharist, April 17 at 10:30 AM - Our combined Easter Day Liturgy is our opportunity to welcome into Christ's Body those who seek baptism. After the liturgy, there is an Easter egg hunt and lunch for everyone; and then - a nap!
  • Bright Sunday, April 24 at 8:30 and 10:30 AM - The Easter celebration continues the Sunday after Easter Day. Everyone is invited to wear their finest (or tackiest) Easter bonnets.
