Maundy Thursday Communion

for 1 hour
St Cuthbert's Billingham
Church Lane Billingham, TS23 1BW, United Kingdom

On Maundy Thursday the tone begins to shift even further. The joy and anticipation of Palm Sunday turns dark, even as Jesus shares a last meal with friends, and kneels at their feet to wash them clean. We mark the day as darkness draws in with a service of Holy Communion followed by stripping the church in preparation for Good Friday and Holy Saturday - those truly black days. For those who wish to stay, a vigil will follow.

St Cuthbert's Billingham

St Cuthbert's is the 'mother church' of Billingham - a church has stood on the site since Saxon times, and over the centuries the facilities have grown and changed to meet the faith and community needs of successive generations. As the ancient village grew into the modern town of Billingham, new churches were created and the parish gradually divided. Today, the parishes have reunited, and the church works together across the town once more, and St Cuthbert's reminds us where we came from.
