Good Friday service including music and choir. Good Friday services are designed to provide the opportunity for reflection on one of the key moments at the heart of the Christian faith, the crucifixion of Jesus. Excerpts from the text of John 18 & 19 will be used to guide us through the events and a selection of wonderful hymns have been chosen to complement the readings.
A special feature for the Good Friday service will be the 30 minutes of devotional music that Richard has compiled, which he will begin playing at 19:30. The Choir will sing twice during the service and their final contribution, the very moving Into your hands I surrender my soul, will be sung as the closing act of worship in our service. Other than participation in readings and hymns the service is marked by silence and time for reflection. We enter the building in silence and leave in silence. The Good Friday service is both moving and dramatic, feeding both the soul and the senses.
