Easter joy

In the Narthex of St James the empty tomb and the cross proclaimed the essential message of Easter in the words of Jesus from Revelation 1.18:  'I was dead but now I am alive forever and ever' .

Inside a packed congregation sang the Easter hymns and songs, considered the evidence for the resurrection in a you-the-jury presentation of the events of the first Easter Day, and shared in Holy Communion, remembering the Lord who was dead, is now alive and, is indeed with us by his Spirit.

Just before that, a special moment was the admission to communion of Sasha, Soul, Caleb, Rebecca, Romeo, Arabella, and Banji (pictured below).

All seven have taken part in our admission to communion course, alongside David & Jessica from St Anne's who will be admitted on Sunday 22nd April.

Congratulations to them all. May God bless them as they go on trusting and serving him.
