This year we have two Lent Groups, both on the same theme, the ‘Instruments of the Passion’. These are the objects associated with the betrayal, trial and crucifixion of Christ – the cross, the crown of thorns, the nails, the spear that pierced his side, the sponge soaked in sour wine (or vinegar, essentially the same thing), Jesus’ seamless robe that the soldiers diced for, the dice themselves, and so on,

I’m very grateful to an old friend of mine from Witham, Vikki Zarb, who is leading the groups with me. Vikki is a retired classics teacher, fluent in Latin & Greek, with a knowledge of the ancient world that I can only envy.

The groups will run for 5 weeks, up to the last week of March, the week before Holy Week. They’ll be quite informal and will focus on the ‘instruments’ and how they’re portrayed in the gospel accounts of the Passion. We’ll give ourselves some time to reflect on how looking at the Passion in this way changes our understanding of this story that’s so central to our faith.

Do feel free to contact Simon for more information.

On the first Wednesday of the Month at 8.30 p.m, we hold a short, quiet, reflective service.

This is an ideal way to finish your day.

Please click on the link below to access the meeting.

Join us for our all-age service, All welcome.

Why not pop in and treat yourself after the school run or doggy walk? Four-legged furry friends are always welcome too. Or just pop in for an extremely good cuppa and delicious homemade cakes! It’s a great way to meet new people, friends and neighbours.

If you are able to help with any baking for the coffee morning, this would be very much welcomed by Heather. Heather can be contacted at [email protected].

We look forward to seeing you!!

We offer a warm welcome to all who wish to share the bread and wine at our monthly Holy Communion Service.

If you are not confimed, you are still welcome and our Priest will offer you a blessing instead.

Reflection on the Seven Last Words of Jesus from the Cross.

All are welcome to join us as we commemorate the resurrection, marking the end of Lent and Holy Week.
