What is Holy Week?
Holy Week provides a liturgical experience of the last days of Jesus' earthly life, and marks the time and events leading up to his resurrection.
This year, Holy Week begins on March 29 with Palm Sunday, and continues with Maundy Thursday and Good Friday on April 2 and 3, respectively. Each of these services carries something irreplaceable and has a part to play in helping us fully experience the joy of Easter morning.
With family-friendly services and meals before Maundy Thursday & Good Friday services, we hope you’ll find it easy to observe Holy Week with us.
Our Lenten discipline of Morning Prayer continues through Holy Saturday. Daily at 8:10 AM.
