Holy Week and Easter Worship at LCH

March 24 + 10:00 am + Palm Sunday

Palm Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week. The service begins in the courtyard as a brass quartet leads worshippers in a procession with palm leaves around the church, recalling Jesus’ triumphant entry into Jerusalem. The service then moves inside for a reading of the Passion Gospel and Holy Communion.

March 28 + 7:30 pm + Maundy Thursday

We remember Jesus’ command to “love one another” as we wash feet and share communion. Music includes Duruflé’s “Ubi caritas” and “Tantum ergo” by Jessica French.

March 29 + 7:30 pm + Good Friday

This powerful service recalls the bitter suffering and death of Jesus that leads to new life. The story of the Passion will be told through William Byrd’s setting of the “The Passion according to St. John” sung by the LCH Choir.

March 30 + 7:30 pm + Easter Vigil

Following the service of readings and the kindling of the New Fire, we move from darkness into the light of resurrection. The resurrection will be welcomed with Will Todd’s “Jazz Missa Brevis,” with full jazz combo, traditional Easter hymns, and the first Eucharist of Easter.

March 31 + 10:00 am + Easter Sunday

Christ is risen! Join us for our 10:00 am festival choral service, featuring a brass quintet to add a celebratory element to worship.
