A series of 3 events to prepare for our observances of Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and the Easter Vigil. All following the 11am service. Lunch will be served.
March 7: Biblical Texts of the Triduum Study the Biblical passages that describe the events we will reenact and observe during the Three Holy Days. What is the new Commandment? Why is the story of the crucifixion called “The Passion”? Why are there so many Old Testament lessons at the Vigil? Led by Helen Goodkin
March 14: Music of the Triduum Music plays a major part in the worship of the Three Days, adding to the meaning of the events special to each service. We’ll look at the music planned for this year, helping us learn more about our own journey with Jesus through his death and resurrection. Led by Larry J. Long
March 21: The Origins of our Triduum Worship It’s all about the women. Hear the stories of Helena and Egeria, the two women whose research and travels some 1600 years ago have shaped our liturgies for the Triduum, and find out how we got to where we are today in the Book of Common Prayer. Led by the Rev. Jennifer Linman
