Holy Week

Holy Week is the most important week of the Church calendar. Join us as we gather in worship. Services are livestreamed through our YouTube channel (Christ Church Anglican, Savannah).

Palm Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week. The procession with palms calls to mind the triumphal entry of Jesus, our Lord and King, into Jerusalem. We also hear a reading of the passion, which is a dramatic shift, ushering in the somber reality of Christ’s death on the cross.

April 7 – Friday

The second day of the Triduum is the most somber of all days. Good Friday reminds us of the agony and suffering of Jesus and the brutality of his death on the cross for our sins. Christ took all sin upon himself, in obedience to his Father’s will.

April 8 – Saturday

The Great Vigil, celebrated on Holy Saturday, is the first liturgy of Easter Day and moves from the darkness of Jesus’ death to the light of his resurrection. We share the joy of our Savior’s triumph with the sacrament of baptism or renewal of our baptismal vows, lighting of the Paschal candle and peals of bell ringing!

  • Bring a bell to ring.

Service Time: 8 PM. Please meet in the front of the church on Bull Street.
