Service of Tenebrae Wednesday, April 5 at 7:00pm

One of the liturgies that has for centuries been part of the Catholic tradition of the church, but has somehow been neglected by some churches is the Service of Tenebrae, which is at present observed on Holy Wednesday by the Episcopal Church.

Although Tenebrae has not been observed at All Saints’ San Diego for quite a number of years now, it would be a worthwhile addition to the liturgical richness and tradition of our local church, and we will be observing it this year.

Tenebrae is an office structured around psalms, readings, and responsories. Its distinctive ceremony includes the use of fifteen lighted candles (or seven in the shorter form we will be using), set on a special stand. One candle is extinguished as each of the appointed psalms is completed. The remaining 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 in 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.

Let us take part in this impactful and spiritually rich service on Holy Wednesday this year!

Our 8:00am Sunday service is a Low Mass without music providing a very reverent service.

Sunday School for ages 4–12 takes place during the 10:30am Solemn Mass and our Adult Formation Class at 9:30am is an open forum led by our Rector.

Our 10:30am service is a Solemn or a Solemn High Mass with full choir and organ, sung prayers, and incense.

Child care is available for children under 5 years of age during Sunday services.
Please join us in worship at one of our several services and Masses. Sunday Mass is at 10am in the church. The Sunday Mass is also live on Zoom and a recording will be posted on our Facebook page for those not able to join us in person.

BLESSING OF THE ANIMALS

On Tuesday October 4 in recognition of the Feast Day of St. Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of animals and the environment, Fr. Carlos blessed animals in the Courtyard by the statue of St. Francis after the Tuesday mass.

Pentecost

On Sunday (June 5th) the Church Universal celebrated the Feast of Pentecost, the occasion when Jesus’ first followers, gathered in Jerusalem for the Jewish Feast of the Weeks, also known as Shavuot—or Pentecost, in Greek—were powerfully filled with the Holy Spirit and proclaimed the Good News of Salvation in Jesus to the multilingual and multicultural crowd gathered in Jerusalem for the feast, and each of them heard the powerful message spoken in their own language.
