Good to Know:
What is the Meaning of Palm Sunday? Palm Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week, the final week of Jesus life on earth, and is part of the season of Lent.
The Biblical accounts of Palm Sunday are found in Luke 19 and Matthew 21, and it is the day that Jesus rode on a donkey into Jerusalem.
Palm Sunday marks the start of Holy Week, which is the week of Jesus’ death on the cross.
MASKING: Masks are no longer required for any liturgies, coffee hour or any other in-building gathering at this time, though anyone who needs to wear a mask should do so.
PASSING THE PEACE: We will continue to use touch-free greetings.
OFFERING: We will continue to use the plates at the front of the church. There will be no more “passing of the plate” at the offering.
HANDOUTS: We will continue to use disposable booklets for all liturgies.
FOOD: Coffee Hour is re-instated as it was before the pandemic.
ONLINE WORSHIP: Online worship through Livestream will continue ONLY for Sunday morning and Wednesday Masses. All other liturgies will be in-person only. We will soon be moving the camera and its computer out of the aisle and into a less visible space.
IN-PERSON WORSHIP: We encourage all parishioners who are able to begin attending our liturgies in person.
VACCINATIONS: If you have not been vaccinated and you are able, please get vaccinated very soon.
Please plan to join us once again in person at St. Stephen’s. There are familiar old faces as well as many new ones; there are beautiful new additions to the church building and new ways of worshipping (we are now using gender-neutral language for God in all of our liturgies at this time). Music continues to fill our space, even more so now with our new organ. It is an exciting and wonderful time here at St. Stephen’s as we begin this new, post-pandemic era, so please join us again as we start returning to this new “normal” way of living.
