St. Anne's Episcopal Church

Please join us for the Good Friday worship service, beginning at 6:00 p.m.

Good Friday is the day when we solemnly remember Jesus’ death on the Cross.  This is a time a deep reverence and reflection, as we listen to the story of Jesus’ betrayal, arrest, sham trial, and execution.  It is a powerful, raw story of unimaginable human suffering.  As Christians, we are called to not turn away from suffering, but to care for our neighbors as Jesus does.  To fully embrace the joy of Easter and the Resurrection, it’s important to remember the depths of sorrow and pain that Jesus experienced.

The Rt. Rev. Mariann Budde preached at the Washington National Cathedral, during a prayer service January 21, 2025.  She reminds us that the mercy, integrity, honesty and humility are the hallmarks of our faith.
