California has 21,472 churches in the Churches List directory. Holiday schedules change every year and are set by each congregation, so this page does not print service times; it points you to the churches that publish them. 7,946 California listings link a website where Holy Week and Easter Sunday services are typically posted, and 20,940 carry a phone number for a direct answer.
Holy Week schedules are the fullest of the church year. As general denominational practice: Catholic, Episcopal, Lutheran, and Orthodox parishes typically hold Palm Sunday, Maundy (Holy) Thursday, Good Friday, and Easter Vigil liturgies before Easter Sunday; many Protestant congregations hold Good Friday services and Easter sunrise services in addition to Sunday morning worship. Exact times vary by parish and by year, so confirm with the church directly.

Churches List does not collect holiday service times, and no time on this page is implied. Counts are live directory figures for California. Tradition descriptions are general denominational practice, not a statement about any specific parish. To confirm a service, use the phone number or website on the church's directory page, and see the corrections page if a listing is out of date.
