A moving and reflective service to mark the last hour of Jesus’ life and one of the most important services of the church’s year. This includes two important parts: the Veneration of the Cross and the singing of the Passion. The first of these brings home to us what the cross is all about, as we sing about ‘the one who came to die, that we might live’. As part of this, we look upon the cross itself, and some may bow or genuflect to the cross, touch or kiss it. This is all part of acknowledging what Jesus has done for us. The beautiful singing of the Passion is a sombre but glorious way of hearing that Passion narrative again.
