HOLY WEEK & EASTER

Join with Anglicans across the Diocese and beyond in observing Holy Week and celebrating Easter with online worship from St. James Cathedral:

  • Palm Sunday: April 5 at 11 a.m.
  • Chrism Mass: April 7 at 10:30 a.m.
  • Maundy Thursday: April 9 at 7 p.m.
  • Good Friday: April 10 at 12 p.m.
  • Easter Sunday: April 12 at 11 a.m.

We hope that the whole Diocese will join together – virtually – and participate from their own homes as we celebrate the Paschal Mystery.

You can watch each service on the diocesean Facebook page www.facebook.com/torontoanglican/ (you don’t need an account to see the videos), and we will also embed the videos on the Diocesan website www.toronto.anglican.ca/
 



LENT & EASTER OFFERINGS - In-Person Drop-Off

We strongly encourage parishioners to give their offerings electronically (through PAR or CanadaHelps) or mail cheques into the church, however some have expressed an interest in dropping off their donations in-person.

If you have any cash or cheque weekly offerings, offerings for the lenten sacrificial giving campaign, and Easter offerings, you can drop them off in-person at the following times:

TOMORROW Friday, April 3rd from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. or Saturday, April 4th from 12 p.m. to 1 p.m.

We will be accepting the donations outside the building (and we will be practicing social distancing).

We will also have palms and palm crosses for whoever would like to take them.  One palm cross will also be mailed to every address on the parish directory, along with an Easter letter from Rev. Graham.
