Maundy Thursday – 29th March 2018

Maundy Thursday

On Maundy Thursday we enter into the beauty of the Last Supper, when Jesus washed the disciples’ feet and instituted the Eucharist. After the service is finished the blessed sacrament is taken to the altar of repose, made to resemble the garden of Gethsemane. The church is stripped of all decoration and we watch with Jesus in the garden until midnight.

Please do join us at Holy Trinity, Stroud Green at 8.00pm Thursday 29th March for our service, followed by a watch until midnight. Feel free to stay as long as you would like for the watch.

Chrism Mass at St Paul’s CathedralThursday 29th March 2018

The Chrism mass, on Tuesday with the Bishop of Fulham and on Thursday at St Paul’s with the acting Bishop of London, is a beautiful service where the bishop blesses the holy oils for the year and the clergy of the diocese renew their ordination vows.

If you would like to join us for the Chrism Mass at St Paul’s Cathedral, please do join us at Finsbury Park station at 9.15am. We will then travel together for the 10.30am service.
