Maundy Thursday Communion with stripping of the altar

Occurring
for 1 hour
Venue
Holy Trinity, Acaster Malbis
Address
Holy Trinity, Acaster Malbis, Acaster Malbis

This poignant, reflective service will take place at Holy Trinity Church at 7pm, but it is a service for all the AAA Benefice. If you've never observed the 'Triduum' (3 days prior to Easter comprising Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter Saturday) I urge you to journey with Jesus in these agonisingly difficult days because they lead to our wonderful Easter hope and joy!

This service atmospherically removes all items from the altar and sanctuary, dimming the lights and we leave in silence to mirror some of the stripping and darkness that shrouded Jesus the night he was arrested and tried.

All Saints, Appleton

We are a small, friendly rural church in the heart of the village, where everyone is welcome. We long to be a place to belong for all people looking to explore God's love for themselves.  We meet each Sunday, either in All Saints' church in Appleton or for a joint service with the churches of Acaster Selby, Acaster Malbis or Bolton Percy. Sometimes we gather midweek to grow in different aspects of faith: pre-Christmas / pre-Easter courses, prayer courses etc. Find out more about how you can get involved by looking at our Services and Events  - we can't wait to meet you!

The parish of Appleton Roebuck w Acaster Selby 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 York’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.
