Taize service for Easter Eve

for 1 hour
Yockleton: Holy Trinity
Holy Trinity Church Yockleton Shrewsbury, SY5 9PQ, United Kingdom

In the evening on Easter Saturday, 8th April, there will be a service of reflection
on the Easter Message at Yockleton Church with chants from the Taizé
Community in France.
In order to get the most out of the service, we would like to invite you all to a
couple of rehearsals of the songs beforehand on Friday 31st March and
Wednesday 5th April at 6pm at Yockleton Church for about an hour each. There
will also be a ‘run-through’ before the service on 8th April at 6.15pm.
During the rehearsals, it is hoped to not only learn the ‘tunes’ but also for some
people to sing the harmony parts, thus adding to the richness of the sound. I can
make the music available in the week beginning 26th March.
N.B. This is open to everyone who would like to learn the songs, regardless of
musical literacy or voice quality!
Also, we are looking for instrumentalists, particularly wind, brass and string
players, to enhance the musical experience. If you would like to play your
instrument at the service, please email me at [email protected]
Do feel free to invite your friends and acquaintances along to the rehearsals and
service, whether or not they normally attend church. We hope that the
opportunity for reflection and participation in the chants will have a wide
appeal.
If you have any queries, comments or would like to receive the music, please do
not hesitate to contact me on 07494 219824 or email [email protected]

Yockleton: Holy Trinity

Welcome to Holy Trinity. Our parish is one of the northernmost parishes within the Diocese of Hereford and Pontesbury Deanery and is close to the Welsh border and has served the parish since 1861.

The Rector, Churchwardens and members of the Parish of Yockleton welcome visitors to the Church of the Holy Trinity - the church will be open daily between the hours of 10.00am and 3.00pm for private prayer 

We trust that you will, on your visit, in a few moments of quiet, remember those who, across the centuries, have kept the Church alive, and pray for those who give their time, energy and support to the Church today

Keep an eye on our Facebook page for service times as they may change from time to time.  There is usually a Zoom link for at least one service in the group each week.  Email Rev David Moss for a link or call in on 01743 884165

Every regular gift, whatever the amount, is very gratefully received and contributes to the mission of the church in the community. A regular gift made through the Parish Giving Scheme (PGS) helps us plan for the future with confidence.

The parish of Yockleton is committed to the safeguarding of children, young people and adults. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer(s), PSOs. The Diocese of Hereford’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor (DSA) who advise our PSOs. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the DSA. If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority Children or Adults Services."
