Synthesis

The catalog shows a parish whose worship life and public hospitality are closely connected. The sanctuary and grounds serve both as a place of prayer and as a venue for the wider Olde Towne community. The same space hosts the Triduum liturgies, string-quartet candlelight concerts, acoustic folk nights, and Sail250 open houses where visitors see the historic stained glass.

The liturgical calendar is the spine of the year. Advent and Christmas lead into the Christmas Eve services and the Scottish Walk on the 7th day of Christmas. Holy Week 2026 runs from Palm Sunday through Maundy Thursday and the overnight watch, then Good Friday, Holy Saturday, the Great Vigil, and Easter Sunday. The community Egg Hunt follows Easter Sunday worship. Seasonal pastoral moments such as the pet blessing and the Blessing of the Backpacks connect worship to everyday life.

Music and arts programming is the largest category. It includes recurring Candlelight Concerts themed on the Beatles, Fleetwood Mac, and 90s hip-hop, and the Acoustic 2026 series that continues into the fall. These events draw in neighbors, while the blood drive, the block party, Tuscany dinner, and tours show outreach and fellowship. The reference pages on leadership, prayer, and support show the pastoral and governance structure behind this activity.
