coconut telegraph Posted March 10 #1 Share Posted March 10 Good morning, we will be aboard the Reflection in a few short weeks and Easter Sunday falls on a sea day. I know there are services scheduled aboard regularly, but wanted to ask if anyone had an idea of what would be different (different venue etc) for Easter Sunday services?

Rare cruisestitch Posted March 10 #2 Share Posted March 10 Each ship is different. S crash ships often use the Celebrity central theater M class Ships may use a conference center. Watch your Celebrity today for details. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arizona Wildcat Posted March 10 #3 Share Posted March 10 (edited) The service will be conducted by the religious person on board. Have had ministers, rabbis, priests, an imam and lay people from other churches. Very non denominational Edited March 10 by Arizona Wildcat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markanddonna Posted March 11 #4 Share Posted March 11 I didn't see a priest on our only two Celebrity cruises. I have seen a priest on HAL, NCL, and Royal. Sabbath services are self led. Protestants have to find their own leaders. We held a church service on board a few years ago. On a transatlantic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may bring on a priest. I would call and ask but doubt they will you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markanddonna Posted March 11 #7 Share Posted March 11 If you are Protestant and capable of conducting a service, contact the CD as soon as you get onboard. We have had music crew play the piano, sing, and one even gave a Sunday message! We have been part of a Bible study that met onboard on sea days.

I've been on cruises with both a Catholic Easter Services as well as cruises that had Passover services. I don't believe Celebrity now give clerics comp rooms as they once did. Not sure who performed the services they had on the ships I've been on. Edited March 11 by Jim_Iain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We used to cruise over spring break when DW taught and the whole East Coast took the week before Easter as Spring Break. There were always services of some sort, but I have no idea who performed them. We should have gone, but we didn't, and usually the Spring Break cruises ended before Easter.
