Services At St John the Divine for Holy Week 2024
You are welcome to join us for this Holy Week 2024, and you can attend one or all of the services.
Holy Week Kick-Off Movie Night
To start Holy Week, we invite you to our third annual silent film accompaniment, performed live by our organist, Kevin P. Monteith.
The event is free, but donations are accepted to maintain the organ and music program.
Palm Sunday
Holy Week starts the week of March 24, with Palm Sunday. We will meet in Healy Hall at 9 am and enter the church. Join us, and you can bring a palm home, including palms folded into crosses.
Maundy Thursday
We will gather for the Maundy Thursday service on March 28 at 6 pm.
The Maundy Thursday service includes the celebration of the Eucharist and a ceremony of foot washing, which follows the gospel and homily. After the service, we will strip the altar and remove other decorative furnishings from the church.
Good Friday
Join us for Good Friday as we remember the crucifixion of Jesus on March 29 at 6 pm.
The Great Vigil of Easter
The Great Vigil of Easter will occur on March 30 at 7:30 pm. This service is the first official celebration of the Resurrection of Jesus.
The service will begin outside with the lighting of the Paschal fire. If you cannot attend in person, the service will be live-streamed. We invite you to come and join us for this beautiful event.
Easter Sunday
Easter Sunday will be at 9 am on March 30, 2024.
