Holy Week and Easter

Unlike last year, this Spring St. Jacob’s will offer our traditional Holy Week and Easter Services. Holy Week will begin with our Palm Sunday services on March 28th. For the 10:30 AM service we will begin outside in front of the church entrance for our call to worship and Palm Procession. Members will be invited to lay their palm branches down at the foot of the chancel near the Paschal candle and then make their way to their seats using the side aisles.

There will be no Wednesday evening service during Holy Week since we will gather again on Maundy Thursday (April 1st) for worship with Holy Communion and the stripping of the altar. On Good Friday (April 2nd) we will gather in silence at 7 PM for our evening worship.

On Easter Sunday (April 4th) we will hold our Easter Sunrise service beginning at 7 AM. Sadly, as things stand right now we will not be offering our annual Easter breakfast for the congregation. Sunday school will be held at its regular time of 9:15 AM with worship following at 10:30 AM. We look forward to the celebration of Easter with our church family, especially since public worship was cancelled last year. Please plan to attend all of our Holy Week and Easter services as you are able.
