Experience Easter

for 1 day
Nine Elms, St George's Battersea Fields
11 Patmore Street Battersea London, SW8 4JD, United Kingdom

Local primary school children will be visiting St George's to experience the events of Holy Week in a multi-sensory, imaginative way. Small groups will be guided round the events of Jesus's last week on earth, from the hopeful clamour of Palm Sunday, to the intimate last dinner with his friends, and the fervent praying in the garden. Church volunteers will ask the children to imagine themselves in these scenes, and then they will contemplate the meaning of the cross, and look into the empty tomb. Easter is a Christian festival that is central to our faith, and this Experience is a powerful way to help children understand what happened and why it is important.

Nine Elms, St George's Battersea Fields

St George's Nine Elms is a welcoming church family that enjoys gathering on Sundays for worship, learning and friendship. Our services are quite informal with a mix of traditional and contemporary words and hymns. There are always separate fun activities and learning for children.  

We meet in a lovely modern building off Thessaly Road, 9 minutes' walk from Battersea Power Station tube. At the heart of our life together is a desire to grow in faith, in friendship, in life and in service.  We offer an open invitation to anyone who wants to share this journey with us.
