A GriefShare support group is a safe, welcoming place where people understand the difficult emotions of grief. Through this 13-week group, you’ll discover what to expect in the days ahead and what’s “normal” in grief. Since there are no neat, orderly stages of grief, you’ll learn helpful ways of coping with grief, in all its unpredictability—and gain solid support each step of the way. This course will be offered on Monday nights and will begin January 26 and conclude April 27. To register, please contact Alice Sanderson at asanderson@stpetersfl.com !

Women's Retreat

This is an opportunity for fellowship with other Christian women to build a deeper understanding of God's Word. Join us as we hear from our guest speaker, Sara Hagerty. Our theme this year is drawn from Sara’s newest book, The Gift of Limitations. Together, we will explore how our human limitations—so often seen as obstacles—can instead become sacred doorways to greater dependence on God. The retreat offers opportunities to learn in large group sessions and reflect in smaller group sessions.

The retreat will begin Friday evening with check-in and heavy hors d'oeuvres from 6-6:45pm, followed by Session 1 with Sara from 7-8pm. Saturday, which will be from 8am - 1:30pm, will include a hot breakfast, snacks, lunch, worship, two small group sessions and two sessions with Sara.

Childcare will be provided!

If you are in need of financial assistance, please contact Tina Campbell at Tina@StPetersFL.com for a scholarship code.

Wednesday in Holy Week | Service of Tenebrae
Apr

7:00 PM19:00

Wednesday in Holy Week | Service of Tenebrae

Tenebrae (Latin for darkness or shadows) has for centuries been applied to the ancient monastic night and early morning services (Matins and Lauds) of the last three days of Holy week, known as the Paschal Triduum. In medieval times Tenebrae came to be celebrated on the preceding evenings. It is a most beloved and hated liturgy because of the shadows of death that begin to cling to our Lord starting with this liturgy on the even of the Wednesday of Holy Week, sometimes called ‘Spy Wednesday’ in reference to the ambush of Jesus by Judas Iscariot.

Apart from the chant of the Lamentations (in which each verse is introduced by a letter of the Hebrew alphabet), the most conspicuous feature of the service is the gradual extinguishing of candles and other lights in the church until only a single candle, considered a symbol of our Lord, remains. Toward the end of the liturgy this candle is hidden, typifying the apparent victory of the forces of evil. At the very end, a loud noise is made, symbolizing the sealing of the tomb by a great stone and all depart in silence. Interestingly, the candle stand is known as a hearse. The Tenebrae service recreates the betrayal, abandonment, and agony of Jesus and it is left unfinished, because the story isn’t over until the Feast of the Resurrection.

Maundy Thursday

Maundy Thursday

  • St. Peter's Cathedral (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

"So, could you not watch with me one hour?” (Matt 26:40)

Come, watch and pray with Christ for an hour or more at the Cathedral, which will be open throughout the night beginning after the Maundy Thursday Liturgy (7pm) and ending at the Morning Prayer Liturgy on Good Friday (9am).

Maundy Thursday commemorates Jesus' time with His disciples in the Upper Room, where He instituted the Last Supper and commanded His disciples to love one another, showing them an example of servant-love by washing their feet. The word Maundy comes from the Latin word mandatum, which means command, as He commanded us both to remember His death through the Supper and to love one another with a self-giving love.

This service is an adaptation for the Advent season of the beloved Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols, which originated at Truro Cathedral on Christmas Eve, 1878, and was popularized by the Chapel of King’s College, Cambridge, through their annual Christmas Eve broadcasts.

In the service, nine scriptural lessons take us from Adam’s Fall, through the Prophets who foretold of the Messiah’s coming, and conclude with the Incarnation of Christ from the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary. Each lesson is then followed by carols and hymns that reflect on the reading.

This service will be followed by sticky toffee pudding.
