Throughout Holy Week, St Edmund’s re-lived the story of Jesus’s last week from his triumphal entrance to Jerusalem (marked on Palm Sunday) to his death on the cross (on Good Friday). Along the way, we heard voices from the foot of the cross (a soldier, Satan, and the mother of James and John) in reflective monologues in the evening services at the beginning of the week, before to the great events of Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter Eve.
The story culminated in our celebration on Easter Day with its theme of restoration and new life, and welcomed a new member into our family through baptism.
