SUMMARY:Maundy Thursday
DESCRIPTION:7:00 pm\nHoly Eucharist and Stripping of the Altar\n\n\n\n\nAdapted from An Episcopal Dictionary of the Church:\nThe Thursday in Holy Week. It is part of the Triduum\, or three holy days before Easter. It comes from the Latin mandatum novum\, “new commandment\,” from Jn 13:34. The ceremony of washing feet was also referred to as “the Maundy.” Maundy Thursday celebrations also commemorate the institution of the eucharist by Jesus “on the night he was betrayed.” Egeria\, a fourth-century pilgrim to Jerusalem\, describes elaborate celebrations and observances in that city on Maundy Thursday. Special celebration of the institution of the Eucharist on Maundy Thursday is attested by the Council of Hippo in 381. There is provision for the consecration of the bread and wine for administering Holy Communion from the reserved sacrament on Good Friday. Following this\, the altar is stripped and all decorative furnishings are removed from the church.

SUMMARY:Tenebrae
DESCRIPTION:7:00 pm\nTenebrae with the Motet Choir \n\nAdapted from An Episcopal Dictionary of the Church: \nThis form of the monastic office (matins and lauds) is commonly adapted for congregational use during Holy Week. The office is structured around psalms\, readings\, and responsories. A distinguishing characteristic of this service is the series of readings from Lamentations which appear early in the office. The distinctive ceremonial of Tenebrae includes use of fifteen lighted candles\, often set on a special\, triangular stand. One candle is extinguished as each of the fourteen appointed psalms is completed. The fifteenth candle\, symbolic of Christ\, is left lighted at the end of the final psalm. But it is carried away to be hidden\, which signifies the apparent victory of the forces of evil. A sudden loud noise is made at the end of the service\, symbolizing the earthquake at Christ’s death. The lighted candle is then restored to its place\, suggesting Christ’s eventual triumph.

SUMMARY:166th Annual Meeting of Calvary Episcopal Church
DESCRIPTION:On Sunday\, January 25\, Calvary’s annual meeting will take place during the 10:30 am worship service\, which will be held in Brackenridge Hall.\n\nIt will be live-streamed\, but you must be present to vote on new vestry members and any other issues that arise.

SUMMARY:Stewardship Forum
DESCRIPTION:During the months of October and November\, we spent several weeks discussing the meaning of stewardship\, how it relates to our faith community\, and more specifically to our budgeting each year. As a result\, a number of you have expressed interest in participating in a number of areas in our parish life. Financially\, our pledge campaign was successful in matching last year’s results. We are grateful! \nThe vestry and stewardship team felt it was important to get feedback from the parish. We want to hear your feedback on our messaging regarding stewardship and the 2026 pledge campaign. We want to know what you thought we did well\, and what we might improve\, particularly as related to ideas about the best way to reach all of the members of our community. Hopefully\, this discussion may evolve to explore ways we might be able to grow our faith community so that we sustain a vibrant and meaningful program as we emerge as the center focus of an expanding medical center complex.

SUMMARY:The No-Rehearsal Epiphany Pageant
DESCRIPTION:The No Rehearsal Epiphany Pageant is Almost Here!\n \nIt is almost time again to celebrate our annual Epiphany pageant!  What is a No-Rehearsal Epiphany Pageant? Well\, for those of you who dread having to drag your kids to yet another rehearsal\, this\, my fellow parent\,s is the answer! Really\, there is no rehearsal. The pageant involves two steps:\n\n1. December 21 & 28\, 2025 – Costume Fitting \nChoose your child’s costume. On these two Sundays from 9:15 am to 10:15 am\, we will be available in the Children’s Church room downstairs for you to bring your child to choose their costume. We have sheep\, donkeys\, shepherds\, wise people\, and many other costumes to choose from! If you will be out of town for both of these dates\, please email Michelle McKean (faithformation@calvary-rochester.org)\, and she will make sure a costume is set aside for your child.\n\n2. January 4\, 2026 – The No-Rehearsal Epiphany Pageant!\nThe kids just need to show up about 30 minutes before the pageant to collect their costumes and then follow the cues given in the script. There will be a live baby Jesus\, many beautiful costumes\, and you really can’t miss seeing the Calvary camel! One quick tip – especially for the little ones who might want to dress in sheep or cow costumes: make sure they have some cool clothes to wear underneath! We look forward to seeing you there!

SUMMARY:Advent Discussion Group
DESCRIPTION:We are entering one of the greatest gifts of time that we have in our church seasons: Advent. The season begins on November 30\, and this four-week period is meant to give us time to prepare ourselves for the remembrance of the birth of Christ on December 25. Advent is always a time of counter-cultural challenge\, as our lives can easily become too busy\, with tasks both joyful and challenging as we enjoy the holiday season and all that comes with it. It is good to find some time for ritual and spiritual practice to center our busy lives as we walk to Christmas.\n\nAll are invited to join in a discussion based on the book\, “From Holidays to Holy Days: A Benedictine Walk through Advent\,” led by the Rev. Beth Royalty. We will meet on all four Sundays of Advent\, beginning on November 30\, at 9:15 am in the Larsen Fireside Room off of Brackenridge Hall. You may purchase the book\, but owning it is not required for participation. We hope you will attend!

SUMMARY:A Service for Those Who Are Grieving
DESCRIPTION:This time of year\, joyous and anticipatory\, focusing on family\, love\, and gifts\, doesn’t always offer space for those who have suffered loss – of a person\, of health\, of anything important\, and aren’t enjoying this season. For many reasons\, people find this time of year before Christmas to be a time of grief\, sadness\, even depression and anxiety. Many people have an empty chair at the table\, or just don’t have the life they had a year ago.\n\nEveryone is invited to attend a special service on Thursday\, December 18\, at 7:00 pm to find a space for prayer\, contemplative silence\, quiet music\, and candle lighting. A Service for Those Who Are Grieving is for everyone who would welcome a pause and a time to honor grief and shed tears\, if necessary\, in a safe place\, and soak in God’s presence in the holy\, liminal space that is Calvary. A place to lay their grief and anxiety at the feet of Christ\, who heals with his presence and his words. Please come and bring a friend.

Legend has it that ownership of Calvary’s corner lot rested on a bet made by George Head\, Rochester’s first mayor\, and Benjamin Whipple\, Minnesota’s first Episcopal Bishop: whoever threw a massive stone farthest would become the owner. Every year\, we celebrate Bishop Whipple’s historic win with a recreation of the event. Come and see if you are the parishioner who will win the stone throw this year. Many thanks to the Mueller family for organizing the Stone Throw. \nAnd that’s not all! We are excited to announce that we will be serving homemade scones (just like the ones served to Mayor Head and Bishop Whipple) with coffee\, cider\, and hot chocolate. If you would like to contribute homemade scones\, please let Cindy Heins know at (507) 993-5824 or heins.cynthia@gmail.com. \nBut wait\, there’s more! It is the Sunday before Halloween\, so we encourage you to wear your Halloween costume to eat\, compete\, and of course\, attend the 8:30 or 10:30 service.
