With Easter being later this year, Transfiguration Sunday, the end of the Epiphany season, falls on March 2. Ash Wednesday, the beginning of Lent, is on March 5, followed by the six Sundays in Lent, culminating with Palm Sunday and Holy Week, April 13-19. We begin the celebration of Easter on Sunday, April 20, which continues until Pentecost on June 8. At Advent, Lent brings Wednesday evening soup suppers and Lenten worship using the Holden Evening Prayer and featuring presentations by our confirmands March 12 through April 9.
