The day started
with a joint Churches Together in Oadby service at the refurbished Baptist
church – one of the last services to be led by their Minister, the Revd Ellen Price,
before she moves on to her new job. We remembered Christ’s trial and
crucifixion through drama, Bible readings, hymns, a sermon and prayers
Afterwards, the
intention had been to distribute Easter eggs and hot cross buns to shoppers in
the Parade at Oadby as an indication of God’s love and generosity to the world
outside. Unfortunately the rain made this impractical, so people were
encouraged to take them for their neighbours, with the same message.
We meet again
this evening, at 7:30 p.m. for a service of meditation as we reflect on the
cross.
