Maundy Thursday Holy Communion with footwashing

for 2 hours
Smethwick Old Church
The Uplands Smethwick Birmingham, B67 6EQ, United Kingdom

On the night when we remember Jesus kneeling at the feet of his disciples, we gather to do the same; to wash feet, to break bread, to strip the altars and to wait in silence for the coming days to unfold. Come for a short time, stay for the duration; we'd love to welcome you to share in this special part of our Easter preparations.

Smethwick Old Church

Smethwick Old Church is both an historic building and a family of Christians. Built in 1732 using money left by Dorothy Parkes, our grade-two listed parish church is the oldest building in Smethwick - closely followed by The Old Chapel pub next door! We welcome people of all ages and backgrounds to share in worship, growing faith and work with our local community. 

We'd love to welcome to to any of our regular and special services, and you can find details of these on this page. For enquiries about baptisms, weddings or funerals please contact our Vicar, Revd Sara Moore via [email protected] or 07473 385789.
