"The very stones will speak"; an evening service for Palm Sunday

Occuring
for 1 hour
Venue
Billingsley: St Mary
Address
Billingsley Bridgnorth, WV16 6PH, United Kingdom

The evening services at Billingsley resume on Palm Sunday with Jesus's words to those who told him to silence his followers; the stones themselves would acclaim him as Messiah. For a millennium, the stones of Billingsley Church have been doing just that, as the building has stood to proclaim the glory of God. We will look at the symbols in the building and the churchyard, their past meaning and how they can speak to us in the present

Billingsley: St Mary

Welcome to St Mary's Church, Billingsley.  We serve the small community of Billingsley as well as welcoming those from further afield. We work closely with our neighbouring churches to be the people of God in these places. We currently have a Holy Communion service on the 4th Sunday of the month at 8 am, and, from April to October, a 6pm evening service on the 2nd Sunday of the month. We also play host to "Forest Church" (outdoor worship) from time to time and organise a number of social events, particularly evening walks during the lighter months as well as seasonal service such as carols at Christmas.

Our rector is the Rev Kina Robertshaw, who joined us in April 2023. Kina's website is here: Kina Robertshaw, co-author of A Voice to Be Heard: Christian Entrepreneurs Living Out Their Faith
