GOOD FRIDAY SERVICE

for 1 hour
St Bartholomew's
Church Hill Wednesbury West Midlands, WS10 9DG, United Kingdom

A Tenebrae service. Meditations on the Passion and Death of Christ.

What happens during a Tenebrae service?
There are as many candles as there are readings, plus a white Christ candle. The readers go up one at a time, read their assigned selections, and extinguish one of the candles, until only the Christ candle remains. Then someone reads the first part of Psalm 22, which Jesus quoted on the cross.

St Bartholomew's

A warm welcome is extended to all those who join us. It is a joy to gather in the Lord’s name and to break bread in the celebration of the Holy Eucharist. It is an equal privilege to welcome among us those of other faiths as well as those who search for meaning in their lives and refreshment on their journey.

We hope you will join us at one of our services

May we all catch in this holy place a glimpse of God's glory and to come to know and do His will, now and in all eternity. May God bless you.​
