Lenten Activities

As we begin the Season of Lent in preparation to rejoice in the Lord’s Resurrection on Easter Sunday, April 20, we have a variety of Lenten Activities to encourage and strengthen you on your journey.

Thursday morning, we have the Lenten Book Club at 10am. We will also have a Holy Hour in front of the Blessed Sacrament Thursday evenings (except March 20) in the Chapel.

Fridays, we begin with Evening Prayer at 6pm, followed by Stations of the Cross at 6:30pm, concluding with Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament.

The Rector will be on retreat from Monday, March 24 until Friday, the 28. There will be no Morning Prayer and Daily Mass those days.

Please don’t hesitate to contact the office at 303-777-5181 if you have questions or need directions.

We wish you a most Holy Lent!

The Crotalus

After the Gloria in excelsis is sung on Maundy Thursday, bells in the church are silent. Instead, a “Crotalus,” popularly known as the “clacker,” is used in place of bells until Gloria in excelsis resumes at the Easter Vigil.

Since bells customarily signify joy, during this most solemn time of the Triduum when we focus on Christ’s Passion, Death, and repose in the tomb, the Church has traditionally used the stark and shocking sound of the Crotalus instead.

Below are pictures of the two Crotali that St. Michael’s possesses. Below them is a brief video highlighting their sound.

The Stations of the Cross

Can’t be present on Friday nights at 6 o’clock to pray the Stations of the Cross with Saint Michael’s? Join Father Fraser here as he leads us in this most beautiful series of prayers to help us on our Lenten Journey.

Please note: This video was produced during the COVID restrictions and mentions being unable to gather together to pray the Stations. This is not the case this year. Stations of the Cross will be prayed on Friday evenings during Lent at 6 o’clock. If you are able to join us in person we will welcome you.
