Irenic Thoughts

Irenic. The word means peaceful. This web log (or blog) exists to create an ongoing, and hopefully peaceful, series of comments on the life of King of Peace Episcopal Church. This is not a closed community. You are highly encouraged to comment on any post or to send your own posts.

Good Friday Evening Service


The Good Friday Evening liturgy was held at Christ Episcopal Church in St. Marys as a combined worship service for Christ Church and King of Peace. Above June, from King of Peace, reads for the service.


Father Dick Casto of Christ Church leads worship.


Our Pastoral resident, Jay Weldon, preached for both the noon and 7 p.m. services.


Father Daudi Ndahana, visiting with us this Easter (see below), leads prayers.

The Easter Vigil
The Easter Vigil, the Queen of Feasts for Christians, begins at 7 p.m. This is the Christian Passover in which we mark Jesus' crossing over from death to life. This was once the high point of the church year. Today, it remains the coolest worship service of the year, though attendance is less in most every church that holds one as the main service for Easter the next day is the bigger draw for crowds.
