Tenebrae

Tenebrae

Please join us on Wednesday, April 16th at 7 pm as we offer a one-hour Holy Week service that uses the simplicity of mostly darkness and some candlelight, along with psalms, prayers, and music to reflect on the death of Jesus Christ. The Tenebrae service has historical roots dating back to the ninth century. Through readings and gradual extinguishing of candles, we enter the visual darkness of Jesus’ last days and feel the waning of his disciples’ faith and resultant rejection. Tenebrae service is a different prayer experience than what most Catholics are used to highlighting symbolism and ancient tradition. Come experience Holy Week in a new, profound way.
