Holy Week: Vicki's involvement

“A full week of church ceremonies whose intricacies boggle the mind.”
(Anglicans Online)

That sounds very much like my week.

I volunteered to buy the flowers for the Easter services. I made a trip to Costco - they were all quite large as things at that store usually are. I went to Loblaws and there were some boxes being unpacked. That was quite easy for me to take home the plants that I needed.

Now it seems that we need some more plants. A trip to Costco is planned for tomorrow.

This is all a new activity for me. Will the plants last until Easter?

The services for Holy Week have been changed somewhat with our new rector. I am going to many of them and skipping a few. Because the Easter vigil is so complicated and we are decorating the church during the service, there are 2 dress rehearsals. I need to know where to put the plants for the best viewing advantage.

I am helping with various Altar Guild activities as I can. I can help setup for the services and tidy up as well. I am taking home the altar linens for prompt washing and ironing in my basement laundry facilities. There is a shortage of various altar linens but some new ones are being made for Easter.

I made a list to help keep me organized. I need to know where I need to be and when and doing what.

It is shaping up to be quite a busy week for me. I have to fit into several visits to Abracadabra as well.
