HOLY WEEK SERVICES

We welcome you to join us in person at our Holy Week services, here is the schedule. (all services will also be streamed at www.youtube.com/StPaulsChurchNewburyportMA for those who are unable to gather in person due to health or mobility issues, and they will also be broadcast on local television stations as usual—times for TV broadcasts to be announced):

Palm Sunday, April 13 at 10 AM: The Liturgy of the Palms and Eucharist to join with Christ in his entrance to Jerusalem.

Maundy Thursday, April 17 at 7 PM: The Liturgy of the Lord’s Supper with foot washing and the watch at the Altar of Repose. The watch (a time of silent prayer before the Blessed Sacrament representing Christ’s prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane the night he was betrayed) will take place in St. Anna’s Chapel until midnight.

Good Friday, April 17 at 3 PM: The Celebration of the Lord’s Passion. A solemn and beautiful liturgy in which we meet Christ at the cross of our salvation.

Good Friday, Hope from the Cross: Music and Meditations on the Seven Last Words of Christ at 7 PM: This is a new offering this year of musical pieces and brief reflections that take us through the seven last words of Jesus on the cross. It is an opportunity to gather at the feet of the cross with beauty, art, and meditative reflection.

The Easter Vigil, Saturday April 19 at 8 PM: The Great Vigil of Easter is the most significant service of the entire year. It tells the whole story of salvation, and the actions we take in the liturgy participate in it—from light to darkness, from the font of our baptism to the altar of Christ’s sacrifice, we enter into the fullness of our life together at the Vigil and begin our celebration of Christ’s resurrection. 

Easter Sunday, April 20 at 10 AM: A celebration of the Eucharist on Easter morning. Pre-service organ music begins at 8.50 AM.
