Maundy Thursday - Tenebrea Service

for 1 hour
St Wenn: St Wenna
St Wenn Truro, PL30 5PS, United Kingdom

The meal will start at 18h30 and we invite everybody to bring a small plate of eats to share before we hold the Tenebrae service.
Tenebrae is a service of shadows and we will follow the story of the hours leading to Jesus’ death using readings, music and times of silence. As the service progresses candles will be extinguished. The darkness will deepen as we hear Jesus’ disciples becoming more distant and the sense of Jesus’ impending trial and crucifixion become more real. The service ends in the dark and in complete silence as we recall Jesus’ death on the cross.

St Wenn: St Wenna

We would like to offer a big welcome to everyone, whether you live locally or are visiting the Parish. If you are interested in holding a Christening, Wedding or Funeral, please contact a Churchwarden initially.
