Celebrating Christ's Presence: Good Friday

Occurring
for 2 hours
Venue
St Mary's, Portsea
Address
Fratton Road Portsea Portsmouth, PO1 5PH, United Kingdom

On Good Friday, our churches become stripped and empty, focusing only on the Cross and all that it means. Join us, and Christians throughout the world, as we gather at the foot of the Cross and pray for the world and ourselves.

From 1pm, you are invited to reflect on the cross. An hour of silent prayer will be interspersed with four reflections on the cross.

At 2pm, we will gather for the Liturgy of the Cross, as we hear the events of the first Good Friday recounted from John’s Gospel. The cross is processed through the church, reminding us of Jesus' own journey to Golgotha.

St Faith's will also hold a Liturgy of the Cross at 2pm.
