Sunday@Seven – Approaching Easter

Our next Sunday@Seven service will be on March 31st, meeting together in the Barritt room in St John’s Hall. The theme this time is: ‘Approaching Easter’ and we will be looking at some of the events leading up to Easter.

Of course the technical term for this period is Lent. As someone once said “Lent is from the Latin word meaning giving stuff up and not banging on about it!” For a longer version of that, have a look at the readings for Ash Wednesday – Isaiah 58:1-12 and Matthew 6:1-6 and 16-21.

What is Sunday @ Seven?

Sunday@Seven is an opportunity to sing and pray in a more informal setting than the usual Sunday and weekday church services. It’s led by Nigel Silvester, our Authorised Lay Minister (lead vocals and acoustic guitar) and Cath Hilton (backing vocals and keyboard), plus anyone else who has been volunteered on the night. It lasts around an hour (ish).

So if you enjoy hymns old & new then we’d love to see you! There’s prayer and thought-provoking meditations too. Plus a brew, cake and biscuits to keep you going. And this year we hope to hold Sunday@Seven on the last Sunday of every month.

We look forward to seeing you!
