Easter Vigil Benefice Service

Occurring
for 2 hours
Venue
St Mary's
Address
Church Lane Orlestone w Snave Ashford, TN26 2EU, United Kingdom

This is one of the most ancient traditions of the Christian calendar. This Holy Communion Service is the first celebration of Easter when we welcome the Risen Lord. The service includes readings summarising our salvation history read by candlelight and the blessing of the Paschal or Easter Candle, symbolising Christ risen from the dead.

St Peter & St Paul

The church of Saint Peter & Saint Paul is situated just south of the village of Bilsington and is accessed via a farmyard opposite the Bilsington Monument, a 16m high obelisk erected in 1835 in memory of Sir William Cosway. Views from the church itself are beautiful, extending across the Royal Military Canal and Romney Marsh. 

The church is open all day for visiting and private prayer. Regular Communion Services are held on every second and fourth Sunday in the month @ 9am. These services follow the traditional Book of Common Prayer (BCP) format and are accompanied by sung hymns and an organ. We are a small, but welcoming community who would love you to come and visit us, and be part of our worship
