Holiday Services(Apocalypse Explained 325) |
Bryn Athyn Church would love to have you join us at any of our holiday services. Please see the Calendar for service times and locations, as services are often held during each of our regular worship service venues and time-slots.
Thanksgiving Family Services - services are on Thanksgiving Day at the Asplundh Field House. The congregation is invited to bring an offering of fruit as a token of thanks. During the service congregants are invited to bring the fruit forward as an offering. One address is given for all; there is no Sunday School and no one on duty in the nursery, although the room is available.
Christmas Tableaux - a Christmas pageant of nativity scenes in the Cathedral. Christmas hymns and special music are included.
Christmas Eve - a candlelit service for families at the Cathedral, this service has one address for all.
Christmas Eve Midnight - a service of carols and readings held at Heilman Hall at midnight.
Christmas Day - held at the Cathedral at 11:30 Christmas Day.
Palm Sunday - regular services. You may pick up a palm branch as you enter the church, to be carried forward and laid on the chancel during the first hymn.
Maundy Thursday Holy Supper - two services are held on Thursday evening of Easter week, a contemporary format service at Heilman Hall and a traditional service at the Cathedral.
Good Friday Evening - is an adult service, with extended lessons from the Easter story and an Easter musical work, such as a Requiem, from the Cathedral Chamber Orchestra and Choir.
Easter - held in our regular worship service formats, locations and times. The congregation is invited to bring an offering of flowers to celebrate the Lord's resurrection.
New Church Day (held on June 19th) - is a special theatrical service, preceded by a picnic, held on the Cathedral grounds, weather permitting (poor weather moves the service inside the Cathedral).
