Every Easter we remember and praise God for the victory over death and sin won by Jesus Christ. Through his death on a cross and his rising again, he won forgiveness for our sins and he assures us of everlasting life. Why not come and join us as we remember and celebrate?
28th March – Palm Sunday
At 10.30am we are joined at Hadleigh URC by friends from other churches in the town to remember Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem.
1st April – Maundy Thursday
At 7.30pm we gather for a reflective service and, using readings and hymns, we recall the events of the Last Supper and the arrest in the garden of Gethsemane.
2nd April – Good Friday
At 10.45am we meet with Christians from other churches in Hadleigh outside St Mary’s Church for a procession of witness through the town. We finish around noon at the Salvation Army. For those unable to follow the procession a parallel service takes place in the Salvation Army.
Our friends at St Mary’s church invite us at 2.00pm to join with them for the Final Hour Meditation.
4th April – Easter Sunday
Meet at 6.15am at the Babergh District Council car park, when we will walk to the top of Constitution Hill for an Easter sunrise service. This is the first opportunity of the day to give thanks for the risen Lord.
At 8.00am in church there is a meditative service, Good Friday to Easter, when we quietly reflect on Christ’s death and resurrection.
This flows into an early Easter Communion service at 8.30am, which is followed at
9.00am by an Easter Breakfast in the Ansell Centre.
10.15am Inspired will lead a time of Easter praise in church and this will flow into our
10.30am Easter Celebration for all ages. As the family of God we will give thanks for the resurrection of Jesus and share in Holy Communion.
You will be made very welcome at any or all of these events.
