WHY IT’S IMPORTANT TO OBSERVE HOLY DAYS
Liturgical Christians, such as Episcopalians, follow the church calendar of Holy Days and Seasons. That’s why the dates on the liturgical calendars change colors, and why we have different colors at different times of the year.

Services at TOTH Ecumenical Lenten Thursdays (Soup Suppers)
These changes of seasons reflect the life of the church as it follows the life of the Messiah from anticipation of his birth to his ascension and the birth of the church at Pentecost.
In many ways, our own cycle of life follows that of the church. If we attend the Holy Days and Seasons of the Church, we provide a model for our personal growth through the trials, tribulations, glories and celebrations of our lives: from birth to life to growth and beyond.
For the upcoming season of Lent, we invite you to attend Ash Wednesday and the First Sunday of Lent. Then for Holy Week, join us on Palm Sunday, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter Sunday.
