Holy Week and Easter 2024

Anna's Easter Icons banner

Join with us, as we follow the journey from Palm Sunday to the Resurrection.  Holy Week is the most important week of the year, in which we go with Jesus on the road to the Cross and Resurrection. The emphasis is on participation and doing - being part of the drama as it is told and enacted through the week. Doing helps deepen our understanding of what Jesus did for us.

Palm Sunday

On Palm Sunday at our morning service we begin the journey, as Jesus rides into Jerusalem on a donkey.

Easter Sunday

We do not know when Jesus rose from the dead, all we know is that when the women went to the tomb on Easter morning, that the tomb was empty. If Good Friday is the most serious day, then the Easter Day is certainly the most splendid and joyful moment.

We light the Easter or Paschal Candle as Christ is proclaimed as the light of the world.

We renew our baptismal vows together because baptism of christening is into the death and resurrection of Jesus. We then celebrate the Eucharist and our Risen Lord.
