Thursday 28th March
Maundy Thursday, service at 7.00pm
Since the fourth century, Christians have gathered to mark Maundy Thursday as a time of remembering the Last Supper through the betrayal of Jesus. Maundy comes from the Latin mandatum novum, a new commandment. The emphasis in this service is on the actions and words of Jesus narrated in John 13, including time at the Lord’s table, and the washing of feet as a symbol of building a community of servant hood.
 
Friday 29th March
Good Friday 9.00am
A service where we reflect on the sacred story of Christ’s passion and death.
 
Sunday 31st March
Easter Sunday- Sunlight service at 6.30am. Church services 9am, 11am and 6.30pm.
The joy we experience on Easter Day makes it easier for us to sense that God is creating new ways of being in our world. The message of resurrection joy enables those who know suffering to trust in the mystery of the empty tomb and to continue searching for evidence of life.  Services at 6.00am on rooftop of Wesley House  Sunlight Service, 9.00am & 11.00am, and 6.30pm Services in the Church.
