Don’t forget the special Easter events and services coming up this weekend!

On Good Friday we will be holding a service at 6 p.m. to remember, reflect and celebrate! As we said last week, ‘Christ crucified’ is the epicentre of the gospel and we want to take time out of our busy schedules to meditate on all that the cross means to us: rescue, revelation and conquest!

On Easter Saturday, we will have our coffee morning as usual from 10 a.m. and will also be involved in the ‘Churches Together’ March of Hope around Goldthorpe. In addition to singing songs of Christ’s triumph, we’ll be giving out goody bags containing Easter treats and leaflets:

goody bagsWe’ll be leaving church at 10.15 a.m. and returning for a family lunch after the march, so do come along and join us if you’re able!

On Easter Sunday, services will be at 10.30 a.m. and 6 p.m. Come along to celebrate the death and resurrection of our Saviour. As Aaron Shust’s new song ‘It Is Finished‘ says

Your ending was our beginning
Your last breath be came our first
Your suffering be came our healing
You were the way
When no way could be found
You were the way
When no way could be found

Every thing has been done
The cross is the proof we have won
For ever Your power over comes
Your life has defeated death
It is finished!

Our future out hope is found in
The promise we’re in your hands
Our rescue, you’ve paid our ransom
You were the way
When no way could be found
You were the way
When no way could be found

All that you started, you have completed
All that you promised, you have fulfilled
All that you challenged, God you have conquered
As it is written; it is finished
All that you started, you have completed
All that you promised, you have fulfilled
All that you challenged, God you have conquered
As it is written; it is finished.’ (‘It Is Finished’, Aaron Shust)
