Maundy Thursday Last Supper and Holy Communion

for 2 hours
St George Church
St George Church, Church Road, Easton-in-Gordano, BS20 0NB

Our Benefice comes together to remember Jesus meeting in the upper room with his disciples to celebrate passover. We meet at 6.00pm to share a simple Agape meal with pitta bread, and lamb. This will be followed at 7.00 pm by a special service of Holy Communion terminating in the stripping of the altar, and we leave in silence as we remember the betrayal of Jesus.
If you would like to attend the meal, please sign up in one of our three churches to assist with the catering,

Christ Church

Sunday 10th May is  the sixth Sunday after Easter  and the last Sunday in the Easter Season before Ascension day on 14th May. Our two readings  remind us that being a Christian requires trust in Jesus, and obedience to his commands. On this the second Sunday in the month, our worship is enhanced by the live music brought to us by Steve Bloggs. Come and join us at 10.30am  for morning worship. Our service is followed by light refreshments as we catch up on the week's news, and share our stories. 

Our Readings are:

ACTS  Chapter 17 Verses 22-31  Paul speaks to the people of Athens

and 

John  Chapter 14, verses 15-21  Jesus promises to send the Holy Spirit to comfort those who truely believe.  "Whoever is the one who has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me"


Risen Christ, who has overcome the world, fill us with your peace this Eastertide. As we look toward your ascension and the coming of the Spirit, strengthen us to keep your commandments of love. When we face trials or loneliness, comfort us with your abiding presence, and fill our hearts with joy. May your Spirit guide us from apathy to action, making us true vessels of compassion in the world. We ask this in your holy name. 

Amen.
