The Lenten Cross

Every year we save our Christmas tree for use during Easter. It is stripped of its branches and from its trunk our Lenten Cross is created. During Lent we add symbols to the cross, reminders of what Jesus did during the lead up to his crucifixion and resurrection. During our Good Friday service nails are hammered into the cross. Then, during our Easter Sunday celebration of the resurrection, the bare cross is decorated with hundreds of flowers, a beautiful reminder of the new life that Christ brings to us all in his life, death and resurrection.

Easter Sunday

On Easter Sunday we will be holding a Communion service at 8.00am led by Revd Peter Williamson.

10.30am Intergenerational Morning Worship led by Mrs Margaret Newman, to include the decoration of the Lenten Cross and Holy Communion, led by Revd Gerald Morris.
