Saint Stephen’s Episcopal Church in Sherman, Texas, will observe Holy Week with a full schedule of services. As a traditional Anglo-Catholic parish, we will celebrate Our Lord’s Passion and Resurrection with the very best of the Western Christian tradition.
Our services feature sacred organ music, ancient and modern hymns, and readings from the King James Bible. Children are welcomed and fully a part of the celebration.
On Palm Sunday (April 13 at 9:30 am), we will commemorate the Lord’s triumphal entry into Jerusalem with a procession and festal hymns.
On Holy Monday and Holy Wednesday (April 14 and 16 at 9 am), we will pray Morning Prayer and remember Jesus’ final teachings in Jerusalem.
On Maundy Thursday (April 17 at 7 pm), we will observe the Washing of Feet, celebrate the Mass of the Last Supper, and remember the Lord’s betrayal and arrest.
On Good Friday (April 18 at 7 pm), we will hear the story of Our Lord’s Passion according to Saint John, venerate the holy cross, sing Good Friday hymns, and celebrate the Liturgy of the Presanctified Gifts.
On Easter Eve (April 19 at 8 pm), we will kindle the paschal fire and hear the story of our salvation in a tapestry of readings, choral anthems, and prayers. We will announce Christ’s Resurrection, sing joyous hymns, and celebrate the first Eucharist of Easter.
On Easter Sunday (April 20 at 9:30 am), our Easter celebration continues with a festal High Mass, paschal hymns, and a Children’s Choir special. After the service, an Easter brunch and Easter egg hunt for the kids will follow in the Parish Hall and Garden.
