The festival of Easter celebrates a pivotal three days in history; the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. In the most extraordinary act of self-giving love, God offers us through Jesus, the hope of freedom from those things which enslave and overshadow us; fear, guilt, addiction, shame, imperfection and even death itself. 'I have come that you might have life, and life in all its fullness', some words of Jesus which sum up the Easter message.
You'd be very welcome to explore and experience what this means at any of our special services this Easter time. We hope and pray that you might enter into the meaning of these transformational events, which are at the heart of the Christian faith. For more about what Christians believe, click HERE. You will be very welcome at any of these services.
