Maundy Thursday

It is Maundy Thursday today, as you will know, a day not to be overlooked.

We look forward to Easter Day, but the journey to that day takes us through Maundy Thursday and Good Friday. Without these days, Easter arrives without its true context.

As we are not gathering for our usual service tonight, we have created a short service to share with you. Maybe watch it this evening as it is getting dark. The link is below, and the service will be available from 12 noon today.

With every blessing during this holy season.
