A Message from the Rector: Holy Week and Easter
Alleluia! Christ is Risen!
In the midst of death, God brought us new life. The Resurrection of Jesus Christ gives us a vision of how God is working. God brings new life in the face of death, promise in the face of despair, and hope in the face of loss.
During this time of a waning pandemic, political division, and global war, it can feel like darkness and death may overcome us. And even in the middle of these troubles, our faith teaches us that God is making all things new, creating life out of places shrouded in death. The faith Jesus proclaimed says “yes,” while steadily looking into the face of everything that seems to say “no.” Our faith proclaims that God is always creating and bringing us new life.
We will explore this passage of death into life as we walk through Holy Week, and into the celebration of the resurrection on Easter Sunday. I am grateful that after two years, we can restore many of St. Paul’s past Holy Week and Easter traditions. Please join us! Click here to see the Holy Week and Easter service schedule.

St. Paul’s relies on gifts like yours to continue to serve the local community and the wider world, and to share resurrection life with those around us. We cannot do it without your critical support. It is the generosity of those who surround this Church that allows us to continue our work. In this strange time, we need your support now more than ever.
