  • Holy Wednesday/ Spy Wednesday Noon the Liturgy of the Word
    St. Martin’s Episcopal Church Bridgewater, New Jersey An Abbreviated Celebration of the Holy Eucharist with Spiritual Communion, Rite 2 Holy Wednesday/ Spy Wednesday Noon The Liturgy of the Word Priest: + Bless the Lord who forgives our sins. All: God’s mercy endures forever. Amen Collect of the Day Lord God, whose blessed Son our Savior gave his body to be whipped and his face to be spit upon: Give us grace to accept joyfully the sufferings of the present time, confident of the glory that shall be revealed; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen. The Lesson (Hebrews 12:1-3) Since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight and the sin that clings so closely, and let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus the pioneer and perfecter of our faith, who for the sake of the joy that was set before him endured the cross, disregarding its shame, and has taken his seat at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him who endured such hostility against himself from sinners, so that you may not grow weary or lose heart. The Word of the Lord/ Thanks be to God Psalm 70 Deus, in adjutorium 1 Be pleased, O God, to deliver me; * O Lord, make haste to help me. 2 Let those who seek my life be ashamed and altogether dismayed; * let those who take pleasure in my misfortune draw back and be disgraced.

  • Holy Week Bible Study Holy Monday: Jesus at the Temple and the Cursed Fig Tree After Palm Sunday, Jesus Returned with His Disciples to Jerusalem
    1 Holy Week Bible Study Holy Monday: Jesus at the Temple and the Cursed Fig Tree After Palm Sunday, Jesus returned with his disciples to Jerusalem. Along the way, he cursed a fig tree because it had failed to bear fruit. Some scholars consider this cursing of the fig tree symbolized God's judgment on the spiritually dead religious leaders of Israel. Others believe the analogy reached to all believers, explaining that true faith is more than just outward religiosity; true, living faith must bear spiritual fruit in a person's life. When Jesus appeared at the Temple, he discovered the courts full of corrupt money changers. He overturned their tables and cleared the Temple, saying; Luke 19:46. The Scriptures declare, 'My Temple will be a house of prayer,' but you have turned it into a den of thieves. On Monday evening Jesus stayed in Bethany again, likely in the home of his friends, Mary, Martha, and Lazarus. The Bible account of Holy Monday is found in: Matthew 21:12-22, Mark 11:15-19, Luke 19:45-48, and John 2:13-17. Read the Bible Story of the Cursed Fig Tree Holy Tuesday: Jesus Goes to the Mount of Olives On Tuesday morning, Jesus and his disciples returned to Jerusalem. At the Temple, Jewish religious leaders were enraged at Jesus for establishing himself as a spiritual authority. They arranged an ambush with the intent to put him under arrest. But Jesus eluded their traps and declared severe judgments on them, saying: Matthew 23:24-33. "Blind guides! For you are like whitewashed tombs —beautiful on the outside but filled on the inside with dead people's bones and all sorts of impurity.

PREFACE Holy Week is the week leading up to Easter, beginning with Palm Sunday and ending with Easter Sunday. It is a week devoted to commemorating Jesus Christ’s triumphal entry into Jerusalem (Palm Sunday), the Last Supper with His disciples (Maundy Thursday), His crucifixion (Good Friday) and His resurrection (Easter Sunday). It has historically been a time of introspection and repentance, an opportunity to embrace what it looks like to live out Christ’s suffering in our own lives and find true redemption in Him. It is this sentiment — death and new life — that is at the heart of Holy Week. We pray this devotional, created by different members of the Evangel family, will bless you. Carol A.
