Maundy Thursday March 28, Tenebrae – a service of shadows 7.30pm
This is one of the loveliest services of the church year. We meet in semi darkness in the church and through scriptures, litanies, and meditations we are led up to the time of crucifixion. During the service six candles are extinguished and the seventh one is taken out of the sanctuary and returned as a sign and hope of resurrection. It is a quiet, reflective service.
