should send this to 🕯️🕯️🕯️ so y’all can marvel at the non-liturgical liturgies of the nondenominational world

Reposted from Ian is the Priest-King of the Sacred Grove at Nemi

can I just say that I’m very very confused by this “not-called Holy Week” Holy Week flier I received from a local nondenominational church?

I for one rejoice when Christians learn things from other Christians. If non-denoms are appreciating the rhythms of the liturgical year, yay! (And maybe Episcopalians will have a few things to learn from our siblings)

for sure for sure! I agree with you there (I'm prob. too cynical on this!) - the thing that stood out to me here was the chaos: Tenebrae service, Passover "supper", SONrise service all back to back suggests less "evangelicals discovering the wealth of the broader church" & more "branding blitz"?

I Can't Believe It's Not Holy Week!

It's an unvarnished good that these things are discovered and discoverable, but I did have a similar "hmm" moment at a major local place advertising a season of "Spring Training" leading up to Easter, encouraging congregants to get serious like athletes and focus their faith, change their ways, etc.

The Prayer Book, the Bible, and the Hymnal 1982 are all I need this week.

"The Passover Supper"
🤦
I get that nondenoms won't want to use 'Maundy Thursday,' (inscrutable, Latin), but
'The Last Supper' (or even, 'The Lord's Supper'!) was *right* there.

[And yes, I know it was a Passover meal for Jesus and disciples, but it is not a Passover meal for Christians today.]
