Easter Sunday Services April 9, 2023
Easter marks the celebration of the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, three days after his crucifixion. The resurrection is considered to be the ultimate proof of Jesus’ divinity and the cornerstone of the Christian faith. Through his death and resurrection, Jesus conquered sin and death, and provided a path for believers to have eternal life. The celebration of Easter is therefore a time of great joy, hope and renewal.
The season of Eastertide lasts 50 days until the Day of Pentecost on May 28, 2023.

Good Friday Offering April 7, 2023 is for Christ Church, Jerusalem
From Bp. Frank:
The history of the Good Friday Offering reaches back to 1922 when, in the aftermath of World War I, The Anglican Church sought to create new relationships with and among the Christians of the Middle East. The Good Friday Offering was created from these initial efforts, which focused on a combination of relief work and the improvement of ecumenical and Anglican relations. Read More

Prayer Vigil Thursday, April 6, 2023-Friday, April 7, 2023
This is a time to pray and be with Jesus as he struggled and sweat blood in the Garden of Gethsemane while his disciples slept, was arrested, stood trial before the Roman authorities, was mocked by the crowd, abandoned by most of his followers, and was crucified. (Matthew 26:36-27:50)
Signups for prayer shifts will be available in the narthex of the church, starting Sunday, 3/26/23.

Maundy Thursday Service April 6, 2023
Communion will be served. There will be no music. The service is expected to last about an hour.
The service will include foot-washing, which is of course, optional. The service concludes with the stripping of the Table. This practice involves the removal of all adornments and decorations from the Table, leaving it bare and stark. This is meant to symbolize the abandonment and desertion of Jesus by his disciples after the Last Supper, and it serves as a reminder to Christians of the need for humility and repentance. At the end of the service, the people depart in silence.

Reconciliation of a Penitent (aka Aural Confession) Monday, April 3-Wednesday, April 5, 2023
Charlie+ will be providing opportunities to hear confession Monday through Wednesday during Holy Week. Time can be scheduled by emailing Charlie+.
The secrecy of a confession is morally binding upon the clergy and will not to be broken. The content of the confession is not normally a matter of subsequent discussion. It is the Anglican belief in aural (heard) confession that, “all may, some should, and none must.” It can be a powerful and life-changing experience, especially for those who struggle to feel forgiven.
Charlie+ will be using the Rite of Reconciliation of Penitents from pages 223-224 of the ACNA Book of Common Prayer (2019). The rite appears below: Read More
