Alleluia! Christ is risen! We gathered at dawn to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ and light the new Paschal Candles. The service also saw the congregation renew their baptism vows. A very happy Easter from us all at Whitworth Church!

Wednesday's Holy Week meditation at 7pm takes place here at Whitworth Church and will be led by the Revd Steve Osman.

Meditations for Holy Week begin tonight at 7pm and focus on the events in Jesus' life and teaching in the days before his arrest, trial and death on the cross. We'll be meditating on his actions, teaching and what was said about him as he prepared to die for the sins of the world. The meditations are 30-40 minutes of music, spoken word, prayer and quiet for reflection designed to help us think more deeply about Jesus. These evenings are intended for everyone and do not require any prior experience or skill! Just come open to thinking and praying.
