7.30pm – Eucharist of the Lord’s Supper and The Watch

Join us as we walk through the events of Maundy Thursday. The service includes the opportunity to have your feet washed (but no compulsion), remembering Jesus’ washing of his disciples’ feet. We will share communion together, just as Jesus sat and ate the Last Supper with his friends. The service will end with The Watch, where the church is stripped of its linens and precious metals, just as Jesus was stripped and taken from the garden of Gethsemane. In remembrance of this, if you wish to, you are invited to stay and ‘keep watch’ in our own, created garden, where the Sacrament will be placed, helping us to focus on Jesus. The Watch finishes with the blowing out of a candle.

St Paul's Church, Bryer Road

We are a church dedicated to sharing the love and light of Christ with everyone in our community.

At the moment, our parish Sunday service is a Sung Eucharist, which takes place at St Mary's in the town centre at 10am, and everyone is welcome. St Paul's is open throughout the week for community groups and events, including our Thursday Coffee Morning (8.45am-10am), which offers a warm welcome and a hot cuppa, as well as an opportunity for support and friendship.

The Parish of Prescot (St Mary's and St Paul's) is committed to the safeguarding of children, young people and adults. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer(s), PSOs. The Diocese of Liverpool’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor (DSA) who advise our PSOs. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the DSA. If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority Children or Adults Services.
