Easter Sunday

The traditional SUNRISE SERVICE at 7.00 am will take place at the new venue of Donnington Castle this year and gives us the opportunity to pray over Newbury on this uniquely special day. Please allow up to 15 minutes to walk up to the Castle from the car park. Please contact Marion Drobig (mariondrobig@hotmail.com) if you would like to take up the kind offer of breakfast at St Mary’s Church, Shaw after this event.

The music team at St Mary’s, Shaw was hoping to host a couple of hours of outreach in Victoria Park on the afternoon of Easter Sunday but, sadly, this event has had to be cancelled.

Good Friday

10.30 am: ECUMENICAL SERVICE at Newbury Methodist Church (including a performance of ‘The Way’ by Andrew Harrison)

10.30 am: GOOD FRIDAY EVENT FOR CHILDREN at Newbury Methodist Church Hall

11.30 am: WALK OF WITNESS down Northbrook Street. We want to make a bit of an unusual splash this year and so are asking as many participants as possible to wear brightly-coloured clothing under a dark coat. Why? Wait and see…!

After the Walk of Witness we hope the majority of Christians will purchase coffee and hot cross buns in St Nicolas Church Hall, with the proceeds going to the work of Christian Aid. But some may like to help in offering free hot cross buns and Starbucks coffee to passers-by outside St Nicolas Church. This gives us a wonderful opportunity to answer questions about the Good News of Jesus with anyone interested. If you are available and interested please email secretary@ctna.org.uk
