Volunteers wanted: reading lessons in Holy Week

During Holy Week we have a busy schedule of special services leading up to Easter. We will be looking for volunteers to read the lessons and prayers. If you don’t normally read in church, you are invited to take part. Young people are especially encouraged to play an active part in our worship. Printed copies of the lessons will be left at the back of church, so all you have to do is pick a lesson, add your name to the sign-up sheet, take it home and practise it. The services are:

  • Holy Wednesday 8pm: Tenebrae (4 readers)
  • Maundy Thursday 8pm: Eucharist (2 readers + 1 intercessor to read the prayers from the service book)
  • Good Friday 2pm (1 reader)
  • Easter Vigil, 6am (5 bright-eyed and bushy-tailed readers!)

There’s no obligation to join a rota, but if you feel you would like to play an active part in our worship through the rest of the year, please contact the Parish Office.
