Sadness

Tonight we pray the last Passion Vespers of this Lenten season. I dearly love these services and really miss them when Lent is over.

Yeah, it's the end of non-Sunday worship opportunities for too many a church. People work on Sundays; we need to cut them some slack and give them other times.

Amen, amen, amen! I look at what they were doing in Magdeburg:

Daily Matins and Vespers (and sometimes the lesser offices appended to those) and Divine Service each Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday. "Let the Word of Christ dwell among you richly!" We used to take that seriously.

What we'll miss are the people who will come out for Lent and then be "too busy" again after Easter.
We are blessed with a 6 o'clock Evening Prayer every Wednesday.
