The Cross stands above it all - an hour at the Cross

for 1 hour
St Barnabas, Gloucester
Stroud Road Gloucester, GL1 5LJ, United Kingdom

Join us for a time of reflection at the foot of the Cross. Hot cross buns and a hot drink served from 13:30

In this quiet and contemplative hour, we will journey through the events of Good Friday with a mixture of hymns, music, and readings, creating space to pause, pray, and reflect on the depth of Christ’s love and sacrifice.

Whether you come to listen, to sing, or simply to sit in the stillness, all are welcome as we gather in the shadow of the Cross.

St Barnabas, Gloucester

Whether you are just having a look, passing through the area or considering joining the church family, we are delighted you have taken the time to visit. We are a church family of all ages, backgrounds and traditions! We are a Church of England Church and we look to scripture, tradition and reason to explore faith and life in an ever changing world

We are a community of faith united around our vision to share the good news of Jesus and to grow in our relationship with him. We do this in both spiritual and practical ways; we love to help out and support one another and those in our neighbourhoods through the challenges of day to day living. Prayer and God's word revealed in the Bible is at the centre of all we do.  We want to get to know Jesus better.

We would love to get to know you better too!  If you want to find out more about faith or about our community then please get in touch and someone will get back to you.
