Commemoration of the institution of the Holy Eucharist by Jesus “on the night he was betrayed” with ceremonial foot washing and stripping of the altar.

Vigil at the Altar of Repose

Overnight, 8:30pm-7:30am

Location: Chapel

At the Altar of Repose, we keep vigil in silent prayer and adoration, recalling our Lord’s agony in the Garden of Gethsemane. This is a way to deepen one’s spiritual connection with Christ’s sacrifice and actively participate in the events leading up to his crucifixion. Sign up in the narthex (entryway) for an hour of prayer and meditation.
