Holy Week & Easter Programme

This year we are privileged to have our bishop, Clive and his wife Jane among us for the duration of Holy Week and Easter. Bishop Clive will be taking the lead in much of our worship and reflection at this holy time in the Christian year.

Please take particular note of the services and events times and venues, and make them as widely known as possible and feel free to come along to any of the times of worship etc. You will be very welcome and remember this programme has been devised to allow as many people as possible to be together and celebrate Easter at S1.
