Good Friday 14th
April 2017
We will follow the usual pattern
of a communion service at 10.00am
and then there will be an opportunity to
meet with the other churches on the green
opposite the Methodist Church for an open-
air service of witness (approx 30 mins).
Following the service the Methodist church
kindly invite us to Coffee and hot cross buns,
which will be a special opportunity to
fellowship with other Christians in the village

thoughts to share as
we celebrate the
resurrection of our
Saviour Jesus Christ
