7:00 p.m.: with Holy Eucharist
So, here’s the thing you’re wondering, Maundy = Mandatum = Commandment. This is Commandment Thursday, and it is the new commandment that Jesus gave us the night before he died, that we love one another. This is probably Nick’s favorite service of the whole year. The liturgy is poetic, sad, but hopeful. It gives you permission to sit in your sorrow, with the promise that you won’t be there forever. There even a part where we wash each others feet. It awkward, but that’s part of the point.
Services at 12 noon and 7 pm
This service is all about going without. Celebrating Holy Eucharist is forbidden during this time, and we spend time reflecting on the death of Jesus and the brokenness of our world. At noon we invite people to observe the “way of the cross” as we travel to the 14 stations of the passion around the church. People can also join online for this service. The 7:00 pm service is different. There is no bulletin, music, or building. We meet around the fire, read the solemn collects, and reflect on Christ’s suffering.
Join us for a service of Holy Eucharist at 8 AM and 10 AM on Easter Sunday. We will have an Easter egg hunt following the 10 o’clock service.
