Holy Days of Creation and Redemption
In Genesis, we read that “God created the heavens and the earth in six days and rested on the Seventh.” (Gen 2:1-2) While Governments and cultures from time to time have experimented with other schemes, seven days a week has stood the test of time. Our Lord’s week of Passion is also counted as the seven days we call “Holy Week.” Join us each Wednesday for meditation on our Lord’s Passion.
We welcome you each Wednesday for our Mid Week Lenten Services beginning with Ash Wednesday on February 14 and concluding on March 20. We will also have a Maundy Thursday and Good Friday Service of Darkness during Holy Week.
