The Great Vigil of Easter is four services in one: the Service of Light, the Service of the Word, Holy Baptism, and Holy Communion. This year, Fr. Michael Novotny preached a brief homily by the early church father, John Chrysostom. This sermon has been preached throughout the world for nearly sixteen hundred years at the Great Vigil of Easter. He is Risen!
Good Friday
What did Jesus accomplish in the incarnation? As we gather at the foot of the cross to remember the death of our Lord on this Good Friday, we are challenged to ask this question. In this Good Friday message Fr. Jonathan Hicks helps us to understand the final 7 words of Christ on the cross. In this single event, Jesus conquers our three greatest enemies: sin, abandonment, and death.
Maundy Thursday
What does the Passover have to do with the Christian gospel? On Maundy Thursday we join Jesus and his disciples in the upper room for their final Passover meal together before our Lord’s Passion. This message from Fr. Daniel Logan reminds us of the various ways God prepared the world for the coming of His Messiah.
