Holidays and special services
Every year St. Alban's celebrates its youth with Youth Sunday, where children and youth conduct most of the service, from ushering to delivering the homily. Every year the church puts on a Christmas Pageant and children of all ages have a role! The Family Christmas Service at 5:30 p.m. Christmas Eve is lively and joyful, and parish kids read the lessons. After the 10 a.m. Easter service, the popular Easter Egg Hunt takes place in the beautiful and safe church courtyard. In the fall kids bring their backpacks to be blessed at Back to School Sunday, and the preschool students are invited to perform a special song twice a year at Preschool Sundays.
