Advance Notice: Christ in The Centre - Good Friday April 10th 2009

TWO IMPORTANT MEETINGS – coming up soon

SCRIPT READING - Thursday 25th September, All Nations Christian Centre, Frog Island, 7.30 – 9.30p.m.

CASTING WORKSHOP - Saturday 11th October 10 a.m.– 4:00 p.m. (Venue To be Confirmed)

Easter 2009 may seem far off, but preparations for Good Friday's production have been going on for some time! There is a new and exciting script for 2009 which will need a large cast. These meetings are both essential if people would like to be involved in next year's Christ in the Centre. At the first meeting we will be reading the new script and outlining rehearsal dates. *Rehearsal dates/times will depend on parts allocated, but most will take place after Christmas. On Saturday 11th October we will spend the day work-shopping and casting the script. Please note: We will cast the production from these meetings so if people are unable to attend one or both but would still like to be part of the cast, please do let me know and I will put you on the list!.

Happy Easter

Once for all. The death and resurrection that changed everything. Wouldn’t it change everything to know for sure that death wasn’t the end? To be certain that life isn’t just “three score years and ten” of existence followed by timeless oblivion that renders the existence almost meaningless…. Isn’t that what we’d all like to know? For Christians, the symbol of the cross and the message of Easter is a reminder that Jesus Christ, God’s son, died on a cross 2000 years ago to offer us forgiveness and eternal life. To offer us the gift of a new start and a relationship with him that starts now and lasts beyond our death. This Easter we’d love to offer you the chance to discover the reality of God’s love for you. Why not come to one of our services, enjoy the celebration and find out more for yourself. We look forward to welcoming you. 

The Passion - Easter Sunday scheduling

This is intended for all those who've missed it during the week or would like to catch up.  The final episode, dealing with the resurrection appearances, will then transmit at 7.30pm.  The team at www.rejesus.co.uk have produced resources to back up the series, including exclusive interviews. They are intended as a source for those who would like to go a step further in exploring faith.
