We’re in the fifth week of Easter already! Time has really flown so far this year. Something I am always grateful for is that we are able to celebrate and enter fully into the seasons in a way that has largely been forgotten in the world outside church. The richness and diversity of our worship, engaging all the senses, invites us richly to experience communion with the Risen Lord in our midst.
This coming Sunday will be the Sixth Sunday of Eastertide, and on Thursday 2 June The Ascension of The Lord will be celebrated in a mass with hymns at 8pm in the Lady Chapel.
The next family mass will be at 10am on 12 June when we will be celebrating the feast of Pentecost, when we remember the day that the Holy Spirit came down from heaven and encouraged the disciples to spread the good news about Jesus. This year at church we are inviting children to make a special Pentecost hat to wear in the service. The church will be decorated in lots of red, and we are encouraging everyone to wear something red as we remember this special day! Children can read more about Pentecost here
