Following the original tradition of a two-week Passiontide, this Sunday marks the beginning of the church's remembrance of the Passion of our Lord.  The second Sunday of Passiontide is more commonly known as Palm Sunday with an observance of a procession with palms and reading of the Passion.  We beseech the, Almighty God, mercifully to look upon thy people, that by thy great goodness they may be governed and preserved evermore, both in body and soul, through Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen.

Worship with us this Sunday as the season of Lent continues to call us to repentance and spiritual renewal but with a dose of mercy.  In the fellowship time following the principal service, we serve simnel cake, a real treat if you've never had it before.  The church grants a taste of God's mercy in this penitential season with a Sunday in which our discipline is lightened.  In the Anglican tradition, it was often the day when young adults employed away from their homes could visit their mothers and bring them simnel cake.  Grant, we beseech thee, Almighty God, that we, who for our evil deeds to worthily deserve to be punished, by comfort of thy grace may mercifully be relieved; through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Worship with us as the season of Lent continues to call us to repentance and spiritual renewal:  Almighty God, who seest that we have no power of ourselves to help ourselves: Keep us both outwardly in our bodies and inwardly in our souls that we be defended from all adversities which may happen to the body, and from evil thoughts which may assault and hurt the soul; through Jesus Christ  our Lord.  Amen.

Ember days are kept four times per year for special prayer and fasting specifically for clerical vocations, recalling that the apostles prayed and fasted prior to the laying on of hands in ordinations.  The ember weeks are the weeks after the first Sunday of Lent, Whitsunday (Pentecost), September 15, and December 13.
