Good Friday Liturgy

for 1 hour
St Mary's and St Barnabas, Humberstone
Main Street Humberstone Leicester, LE5 1AE, United Kingdom

The Good Friday Liturgy including the Passion from the Gospel of John sung in Plainsong. The service will be held in accordance with current COVID guidance and the congregation will have to wear face coverings etc. This is a profoundly moving service which lends itself perfectly to sitting quietly to contemplate the passion and crucifixion of Jesus.

St Mary's and St Barnabas, Humberstone

A message from St Paul's letter to the Ephesians Chapter 3:

I ask God from the wealth of his glory to give you power through his Spirit to be strong in your inner selves,  and I pray that Christ will make his home in your hearts through faith. I pray that you may have your roots and foundation in love, so that you, together with all God's people, may have the power to understand how broad and long, how high and deep, is Christ's love. Yes, may you come to know his love—although it can never be fully known—and so be completely filled with the very nature of God.

Come and join us as we worship together and explore our understanding of the power of God's love. We meet for either Holy Communion or Service of the Word at 11am on Sunday mornings and for a said Holy Communion at 9.30am on Wednesdays.

Sadly our Church Hall is closed at the moment as it requires significant building work to make it watertight and fit for use. Please watch this space as to how you can help us to raise funds to carry out the work.

We welcome weddings, funerals and baptisms at St Mary's. If you'd like to find out more then please leave us a message on this page and we will respond as soon as possible.
