Maundy Thursday Sung Communion with stripping of the Altar

for 1 hour, 15 mins
Church of the Ascension Hilversum
Ascension Anglican Church Boomberglaan 6 Hilversum, 1217RR, Netherlands
Our service tonight begins with a burst of joy, the Gloria, as we commemorate the institution of the Lord’s Supper, the Holy Communion. Our service concludes with a desolation and silence as we strip the church of all ornamentation, all of which is possible only because of our Lord’s self-giving. On that night Jesus said, “With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer:  For I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.” [Luke 22:15-16 KJV]

We are a new Church of England church plant. You are most welcome.  If you are simply curious, or you desire to worship God, are seeking  friendship, encouragement and strength in the journey of faith, we believe Jesus is calling you to "Come and see!"  We are in the classical Anglican High Church tradition.  We desire to ascend, as by steps, into the life of God.
