We celebrated out first Easter Eucharist at our 8am Service on Easter Sunday morning. A quiet reflective and joyful service amongst well known friends where we also had time to admire the beautiful flower arrangements and altar.The Family service was well attended and was greatly enjoyed by all. The children joined in dancing to the music, colouring in and building wonderfully creative Lego constructions including an Easter Garden and a battleship. Our choir lead the singing and inspired the congregation to join in with enthusiasm in the well known Easter hymns.After the service, the children took part in an Easter egg hunt in the churchyard and everyone enjoyed hot cross buns and Easter eggs along with our usual refreshments!What a glorious time together celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ as one united family.
