Maundy Thursday - Holy Communion

for 1 hour, 15 mins
St John the Divine
Draycombe Drive Sandylands Morecambe, LA3 1EX, United Kingdom
We gather to take our part in a service of Holy Communion. We remember Jesus at the Last Supper with his friends where he left his command to 'do this in remembrance of me." This is a service with deep symbolism as after receiving the bread and wine the altar is stripped of its dressings and the lights are dimmed to hear the passages of the Bible that tell of Jesus' arrest in the Garden of Gethsemane. We then leave in silence.

St John the Divine

Welcome to our church and your church.

We are a welcoming and happy bunch of God's family, doing our best to follow Jesus and love each other. We have children's ministry and we enjoy hearing and singing of God's glory and faithfulness. Please come along wether you are new to the area, visiting, or have not been for some time. We would love you to join with us as we recognise Christ's image in each and everyone of his beloved children (young and not so young!)
