Keep a Holy Lent at Saint John’s 

In addition to the beauty of Lenten Sunday worship, there are lots of ways to observe a Holy Lent with the gathered saints at our beloved parish. 

The Holy Rosary and Reconciliation of a Penitent: By request of the faithful, the clergy will offer Rosary prayers on Wednesday afternoons at 12:00 pm following the noon Angelus bell toll. For those who are interested in the Sacrament of Reconciliation, the clergy will be available following the Rosary. For more information, please feel free to contact the parish clergy!

Wednesday Lenten Suppers: Each Wednesday, we’ll begin with worship in the church at 5:30 pm. At 6:00 pm each week a different ministry group serves a simple supper in the Common Room.

Searching the Psalter: Our Lenten program is a series of meditations on the Psalms of David. Each week, we will be invited into a different theme of how we, as the people of God in Christ, can connect with the Psalms of David. We’ll start at 6:30 pm on Wednesday evenings, following our supper.

 

Friday Stations of the Cross: Fridays in Lent, please join us in the nave of the church at 5:30 pm for the Stations of the Cross. This ancient devotion dates to the early centuries of the Church and invites worshipers to meditate on the Sorrows of Christ.  

Lent is a wonderful time for our music department. Some of the most moving and austere sacred music comes from this reflective season. Choral evensong will feature many of these beloved settings, including a special early Baroque styled evensong on March 30th.

We are also offering a choral service for the Feast of the Annunciation on Tuesday, March 25.
