Currently livestreaming: The Mass of the Lord’s Supper

Festal Eucharist

Sunday, March 6, 2011
11:00 a.m.

(QUINQUAGESIMA)

The 11am Eucharist is typically the best-attended worship service at Saint Thomas each week. It is at this service that you not only will experience the full power of liturgy, music and preaching at Saint Thomas, but also will have the opportunity to meet many parishioners in the pews. Coffee hour follows the service.

Today’s Eucharist is “festal” because we celebrate the Last Sunday of the Epiphany, and an epiphany in and of itself–the Transfiguration. If you attend the service in person, you’ll notice the white vestments. There is also incense during the Offertory. Included during worship are hymns sung by the congregation and choir, additional music sung exclusively by the choir, lessons, prayers, a sermon, and a Rite I Mass. All baptized Christians are welcome to receive Holy Communion. Details of the service may be seen in the leaflet, which is posted at the bottom of this page a few days in advance. Please note: The Last Sunday after the Epiphany marks the end of the “green season” and the approach of Lent. Details for Ash Wednesday, including the imposition of ashes throughout the day, may be found here. Details for the first Sunday in Lent may be found here.
