“Burning of the Greens”
Twelfth Night Burning of the Greens, Saturday, January 5th
Bring your tree and other greens to burn for our Twelfth Night of Christmas “Burning of the Greens” Celebration on Sunday evening, January 5th, at 6PM. We will be collecting Christmas trees and wreaths in the South Parking Lot after Christmas to be burned in a celebratory fire.
Join us in the church for the 5pm “Come As You Are” Eucharist, followed by a special procession to the parking lot immediately following the Post Communion Prayer and final Blessing of Christmastide for the Burning of the Greens. We will conclude the evening by feasting on King Cake (you know, “We Three Kings”), which was originally eaten on Epiphany and not Fat Tuesday, and hot chocolate as we bring the Christmas season to a fitting close! Fr. Donavan will also bless chalk to be picked up and taken home to bless your house with the inscription of the New Year and the initials of the traditional names of the Three Kings, 20+C+M+B+25, over your house door!
Don’t miss one of the BRIGHTEST nights of the winter season, and invite your friends and neighbors to join us for our Twelfth Night celebration!
