Good Friday, 12:00 pm – 1:45 pm
On Good Friday, we relive Christ’s last words with this powerful tradition. Seven of our parishioners and clergy will give a reflection on each of the “words” or phrases Christ spoke as he was on the cross. Together with scripture readings, music, and personal prayer time, this service will transform your Lenten experience.
