Walking the Way During Lent
Trinity Ashland will offer the opportunity to reflect on Jesus’ final day in Jerusalem. The spiritual practice known as Way of the Cross, Stations of the Cross and the Via Dolorosa has it roots in the intentions of pilgrims to the Holy Land over many hundreds of years. The Episcopal Book of Occasional Services lays out two versions of the Way of the Cross. This year we will use the Scriptural Way of the Cross. Come, be a pilgrim the first six of the seven Fridays in Lent. Join us at noon on Fridays beginning March 7 and concluding on April 11.

Daniel Currie Green has been an Episcopal Priest since 2005, and served parishes in Carmel-by-the-Sea and Petaluma, California, before coming to Trinity, Ashland in March, 2024. Raised in California, Indiana, and Vermont, he studied religion, history, and philosophy at Williams College before taking a leave of absence in 1984 to campaign full-time for nuclear disarmament.
From 1988 to 1994 Daniel was a resident student at Green Gulch Farm and Tassajara Zen Mountain Center, temples of the San Francisco Zen Center. He was the Farm Manager at Green Gulch in 1993 and 1994, when he led the establishment of the renowned Farm and Garden Apprenticeship program. He was baptized and confirmed at St. Gregory of Nyssa Episcopal Church, in San Francisco where he was active as a liturgical minister, preacher, and Clerk of the Vestry, before being sponsored for Holy Orders. He worked for the San Francisco League of Urban Gardeners as the founding Farm Manager of St. Mary’s Urban Youth Farm, a job-readiness program for at-risk youth in the Bayview-Hunter’s Point district, later starting his own garden design, installation, and maintenance company, Green Man Gardening.
Daniel completed his Bachelor’s Degree at the California Institute of Integral Studies in 1999, and in 2002 was awarded an Excellence in Ministry scholarship from the Church Divinity School of the Pacific, where he earned the M.Div. degree in May, 2005. During his time in the Episcopal Diocese of El Camino Real he served on the Commission on Ministry, and in the Diocese of Northern California he served on the Board of Trustees and was Dean of the Russian River Deanery from 2014 to 2022, during which time he supported congregations in Lake, Mendocino, and Sonoma Counties through an unprecedented series of catastrophic wildfires. From 2017 to 2024 he was the Bishop’s representative to the Diocese of Honduras, which has a companion relationship with Northern California, spending two months of sabbatical in Honduras and Guatemala in 2017.
