2024 Season of Easter to Pentecost to Advent

The season from Easter to Pentecost is also called the Great Fifty Days, a tradition inspired by the Jewish season of fifty days between Passover and Shavuot—the feast celebrating the giving of the Torah to Moses.

Pentecost Sunday starts on Oct. 19 and runs through Nov. 24. Pentecostal Red is also the color for Reformation Day on Oct. 31. On October 31,1517 Martin Luther wrote a letter to his superiors in which he denounced the sale of indulgences and asked for repayment and removal of the misunderstandings. His 95 radical questions expressed Martin Luther’s growing concerns with the corruption within the Church, and called for a complete reform of the Catholic Church.

Martin Luther actually nailed his 95 Theses to the door of All Saints’ Church, which was this revolutionary act that began what later became known as the Protestant Reformation. The Catholic Church found Martin Luther’s act to be so radical and non-conforming that he was eventually excommunicated. The excommunication of Martin Luther from the Catholic Church ushered in what became known as the Protestant Reformation.

2024 Season of Lent

Lent is a season of spiritual preparation before Easter.  It begins on Ash Wednesday.  During Lent, many observe a period of fasting, repentance, moderation, self-denial, and spiritual reflection and discipline.

February 14, 2024    Ash Wednesday

Join Us for Ash Wednesday at 7 PM
Please join us on Feb. 14th for our Ash Wednesday service which begins our season of Lent.
Lent’s three pillars are prayer, fasting and almsgiving–meaning that we’re called to do more than just abstain from a particular food or activity. It involves not only what we’re willing to give up, but what we’re willing to take on. Think about what sort of commitment to prayer and charitable organization that you can commit yourself to during our 40 days and 40 nights of Lent.
