Ash Wednesday
Ash Wednesday initiates Lent, a period of reflection, repentance, and preparation for Easter, rooted in Jesus’ wilderness experience. Observers receive ashes as a symbol of mortality and repentance. The day emphasizes communal acknowledgment of sin and the need for God’s grace, encouraging participation through services and fasting to deepen spiritual awareness.

Palm Sunday
Palm Sunday is a day of palm fronds, outdoor processions, and loud praises to Christ. With these practices, we mimic the crowds that went with Jesus on his way into Jerusalem. Like them, we celebrate Christ as the returning King, the son of David, and the long-awaited messiah.

Maundy Thursday
​
Maundy Thursday commemorates the Last Supper when Jesus instituted the Eucharist (Communion) and washed his disciples' feet, modeling humble service, stemming from the Latin "mandatum novum" (new commandment to love one another). Celebrated by many Christian denominations, services often include foot-washing, special Communion, and a somber stripping of the altar, marking the start of the Easter Triduum before Good Friday.

Good Friday
Good Friday is the most solemn day of the church year. It holds profound significance for Christians, commemorating the crucifixion of Jesus Christ and his death at Calvary. We solemnly remember the sacrificial acts of Jesus, who bore the sins of humanity and “reconciled to himself all things, whether in heaven or on earth peace by the blood of his cross.” (Colossians 1:20)

Easter
Jesus Christ is not dead, he is alive! Through his miraculous resurrection, sin and death have been defeated, and we have been reconciled to God. Our joy overflows, and we cannot be silent; we must cry out! These are events so deserving of praise and cheers that, as Jesus said in Luke 19:40, if we kept quiet, the stones along the road would burst into cheers!”
