EASTER FLOWERING OF THE CROSS
All are welcome to participate in this beloved tradition as the cross is brought to life with color and beauty as a living symbol of resurrection. Stop by and place a flower in the cross that will be set up in the Atrium on Easter Sunday. Bringing something from your own garden is a practice that is certainly welcome, and one that many find especially meaningful.
EASTER ALTAR FLOWERS
We will once again have beautiful floral arrangements and decorations in our sacred spaces this Easter, with your help! Donations received on or before Sunday, April 2, will be listed in the Easter service leaflet. Those received after that date will be listed online. Your donation can be made in memory of or thanksgiving for a loved one. While any gift is appreciated, a minimum of $125 per printed line is suggested.

PASTORAL Care
Whether at work, at home, with friends or teammates, or in more formal helping roles, many of us have been, or will be, called upon to respond to someone who is experiencing a mental-health crisis or considering suicide. The Cathedral is hosting a two-day workshop in one of the world’s leading suicide-intervention models, Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST). ASIST teaches individuals to provide a skilled intervention to a person who may be having thoughts of suicide and develop a collaborative safety plan to keep them safe and alive.
The cost is $175 for Cathedral members and $250 for nonCathedral members. Payment in full is required at the time of registration. The payment is non-refundable by April 14; and before that date, there is a possibility of up to a 50% refund. Register at cathedralATL.org/ASIST. For questions, please contact the Rev. Canon Cathy Zappa.
HOLY WEEK
April 2–9
Full schedule on front page.
Wonder Week ofJUNE 5–9
Vacation
Arguably the most profound Sunday 4 o’clock choral service of the year, A Meditation on the Passion of Christ, with Carols, employs lessons and carols, spirituals, anthems, motets, and congregational hymns to illuminate the Passion of Christ, which is retold using biblical narratives from Mark, Matthew, and John, sung to some of the most ancient plainchant known to the Church. It is a deeply meaningful way to step back from the hectic pace of life and enter into Holy Week. The service begins at 4:00 p.m. this Sunday, April 2, with prelude music beginning at 3:40. See page 2 for detailed music listing.
SENIOR CYBER SAFETY EVENT
Friday, April 14, 10 a.m.–12:30 p.m. Child Hall
The Senior Citizen Public Safety Event is aimed at protecting seniors from commercial harassment and cyber security threats. Topics discussed will include crime prevention, cyber/telemarketing threats, and the increasing risk of commercial harassment by investors targeting the senior community. This program, offered by Atlanta’s Office of the City Solicitor Community Prosecution and Outreach Division, is free and open to the public.
