From the Sunday after the Epiphany through the Fifth Sunday in Lent, 2008, the parish worshiped in the Oratory of the Upper Room in the Rectory. On Palm Sunday, services resumed in the church building with the blessing of palms and a procession. The Liturgy of Maundy Thursday concluded with a Watch at the Altar of Repose in the Lady Chapel. On Good Friday, new Stations of the Cross were used for the first time. Stations are visible to the left of the Altar of Repose on Maundy Thursday and to the left of the icon of St. Paul in the first photo of the Easter Garden. The Stations were fashioned from photographs of Stations painted by New Mexican santera Marie Romero Cash for the Cathedral of St. John in Albuquerque, NM. On the morning of Pascha, the congregation entered the church by a new Easter Garden. The High Altar was adorned with a new frontal given in memory of Gloria Stanton and Margaret Kriss.
