Walk from the Grange Court to Church, please bring your own branches if possible. Followed by Sung Eucharist in the Priory Church.
The service of Tenebrae (shadows) is a moving and evocative series of traditional meditations on Christ’s Passion dating back to medieval times and accompanied by plainchant. Over the years many folk at the Priory have found the darkness and light of this service a profoundly moving beginning to their keeping of Holy Week.
