Easter Services

On Palm Sunday, we will join the Jesus parade. Through immersive storytelling, we will take our parts as, variously, disciples, onlookers and the crowd who welcome him into the city, share a meal with him, witness his arrest, and call for his crucifixion. In tears, we will go out into the mystery of Holy Week, ready to pick up the story again on Maundy Thursday.

Maundy Thursday is a time to embody John’s account of the Last Supper through foot washing, communion, readings and prayer. As we wash one another’s feet, we honour the sacred dignity of every person and bind ourselves to one another to live in love and peace.

Good Friday is the day of the cross. Through readings, prayers and sombre songs, we contemplate the suffering and death of Jesus, our Saviour. By being steadfast in the place of horror, we may enter into the mystery of resurrection life.

On Easter Sunday, the church celebrates the resurrection of Christ, however and whatever we understand this to be. At Easter Christ invites us into new life with him.  Easter can be a new beginning for us all.  Come and celebrate.
