What a wonderful Easter Day service we had to celebrate the Risen Lord! We had a gospel egg hunt, egg smashing, renewal of baptism rites, Easter Eucharist, Easter garden & Bonnet competition, Raffle, Egg hunt in the grounds of the church and lots of fun and fellowship. It was wonderful to see so many people gathered together and taking part in activities for this special Sunday.
Thank you to everyone involved in the planning and organising for Holy week and Easter Day, extra services in the Parish and extra things and activities to organise for each service, thank you to all in the Parish who helped with it all. Thank you to Jubilate for leading the songs so beautifully on Sunday, and to all of our wardens for preparing our churches for worship. For those of you that missed it, Tasha led her first service at Bretherton on Good Friday, we will see more of her up at the front in the future as she nears the completion of her ALM studies, we pray with hope and thanksgiving for the growth of her ministry.
May all who joined us over Holy week and Easter continue to seek to know Jesus more deeply, and may our churches be a comfortable and safe space for all to grow in faith (whether you have been coming for a week or a decade!), everyone is welcome!
***Also a HUGE Thank you to Revd Tracy and Janet for leading us through Holy week, Easter and generally week to week, we are blessed to have you both***
