At the end of the Mass Psalm 22 will be sung while the altars are stripped bare.

Will you not stay and watch with me ?
Following the Mass the church will remain open until midnight for everyone to spend some time in thought and devotion to remember the time that Christ spent in the Garden of Gethsemene agonising of what was to happen.

The Stations of the Cross are a 14-step devotion that commemorates Jesus Christ's last day on Earth as a man. The 14 devotions, or stations, focus on specific events of His last day, beginning with His condemnation. The stations are commonly used as a mini pilgrimage as the individual moves from station to station. At each station, the individual recalls and meditates on a specific event from Christ's last day. Specific prayers are recited, then the individual moves to the next station until all 14 are complete. We invite you to join with us as we meditate on the journey to the Cross.

The Stations of the Cross for children will take place on Good Friday morning at 11 am. This is an opportunity to invite people along who may not otherwise hear the Good News of Christ’s death and resurrection. This will be followed by the serving of drinks and Hot Cross Buns

This is a sacrament that many people think is the sole preserve of the Roman Catholic Church but the reality is that it is part of the tradition of the Church of England which is particularly encouraged in the Book of Common Prayer.

THE THINGS HE CARRIED……. THE CROSS
