Easter –

Our worship began with the ecumenical lighting of the Paschal candles at Old St Mary’s. The scouts provided the Easter Fire, complete with a gadget that allowed for a safer lighting of the candles.
The Easter Vigil followed in the churches of the town. Thank-you to those who provided the wonderful Easter decorations in our churches. The Christmas Tree that had become the cross in Old St Mary’s was particuarly tall and elegant this year.
Our four Confirmation candidates received Holy Communion on Easter Day in old St Mary’s in the presence of a large congregation that included extended family.
