[ecm] ECM in Holy Week

[The Rev. Robert Lundquist]

Hi all,

Sunday 5 pm dinner & program continue...  This Sunday, something new! 
"The Simpsons" Sunday School.  Yep, we'll watch an episode & talk about
it.  Some pretty deep stuff in there, along with the laughs.  Tomorrow I
think we'll be watching "One Fish, Two Fish, Blow Fish, Blue Fish."  Homer
learns he has 24 hours to live -- how will he spend it?  Mmmm, donuts... 
We meet in the classroom (south building) at St Paul’s, 1208 W Elizabeth
in Campus West


Every Wednesday at 7 pm -- student-led worship, with music. Visit
www.stpauls-c.org/College_ministry.htm to read some of the recent sermons
by young adults.


Palm Sunday is TOMORROW!  Here's the Holy Week and Easter schedule @ St
Paul's:

Sunday, April 1, Palm Sunday: Holy Eucharist at 7:30 am and 10 am. Worship
begins outdoors with the blessing and distribution of palms, and includes
the dramatic reading of the Passion Gospel of Luke.  You can volunteer for
a part if you'd like...

April 3, Holy Tuesday: Holy Eucharist at 7 am.

April 4, Holy Wednesday: Tenebrae at 7 pm. This is a beautiful service of
chanted psalms by candlelight. Worshippers are invited to bring small
flashlights, as the service ends in complete darkness.  If you'd like to
know something about the music please come @ 6:30 to Bacon Hall for a
music rehearsal.

April 5, Maundy Thursday: Holy Eucharist at Noon and 7 pm. The evening
service will include footwashing and the stripping of the altar.  At 6:15
you are invited to an Agape Meal in Bacon Hall, a meal very much like
Jesus would have had with his friends...

The Vigil at the Altar of Repose will be held in the classroom from 8 pm
until 7 am.  Sign up to watch and pray with Jesus for one hour...

April 6, Good Friday: The Good Friday Liturgy at 7 am, Noon and 7 pm. 
Communion from the reserved sacrament at the morning service only.

April 7, Easter Eve: The Great Vigil of Easter at 8 pm.  This is the way
coolest church service of the year, imho...

April 8, Easter: Festive Eucharist with music at 7:30 am and 10 am.  Bring
a friend!


Coming May 6-9: Exam Week Open House, from 7-11 pm each night. It’s a
QUIET place to worship, with coffee, snacks & wifi. Also a lounge (couches
& less quiet) and an open church (pews and EXTREME quiet). You and
everyone you know are welcome to come to the oasis. At St Paul’s, 1208 W
Elizabeth



I know of 2 students looking for summer or longer places to stay.  Have an
empty room or apartment?  Let me know & I'll connect you...


I pray for God's blessings upon you this week, when Christians all over
the world look deeply into their faith to glimpse the Risen Christ once
more.  Take some time -- in worship, in prayer, in silence -- to reflect
on the gifts you've received from God, AND the gift that YOU are to God's
world.

In Christ,

Rob+
