12pm Good Friday “Three Hours by the Cross”

This devotion was introduced into the Church of England in the nineteenth century.  The first hour is now sometimes incorporated into the structure of the second. It is a widespread custom for there not to be a celebration of the Eucharist on Good Friday

This midday service provides an opportunity to reflect in silence, through hymns and through scripture on the sacrifice and death of the Lord Jesus Christ.  We also have an opportunity to pray for the world, for others and for ourselves.   May this service be a reminder of the Lord who came “not to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many”.

All are welcomed to this special service.
