It's an hour of reflection in the Christian tradition, led by Mthr Rachel inside our beautiful forest church. Please bring a yoga mat or something to lie on; and a heart and soul that's open to the Divine.

We'd also love you to join us for our parish lunch at 12.30 after the service- £6.50/adults, £3/12-16s, free for kids. Send us a message so we can put you on the list and buy enough food! 🧀 🍞 🥗 🍓 🍦

We made elder bead rosaries, found Mary/Our Lady themed flowers, and made rosary beads from rose petals (you whizz them into a smoothie, heat over the fire, squash out all the water, then roll the dough into balls to dry!). And we cooked elderflower fritters over the fire. ✝️⚓

When we say All Welcome, All The Time, we do honestly mean it. We love the family of St Peter's to properly sound like a family, worshipping and doing life together, and need tiny voices to be a part of that 🥰 (happy, loud, cross, squealy, sad- however they come).

🌸 10am in church for parish Eucharist, with colouring and biscuit Easter gardens to make on the table at the back.

🌸 3pm Forest Church round the firepit to sing, pray, play, and create in nature.

Then we roasted dates (from date palms) over the campfire 🔥 We do love a thematic snack 😋

Where the younger members of church stayed outside to saw 🪚 and drill candle stands for mini 'holy week tenebrae'. You light all the candles today, blow one more out each day you light them until it's in darkness on Good Friday, then light them all at Easter.

In fact we had a veritable stable full of real* donkeys!

We made these brilliant hobbydonkeys before the Palm Sunday procession, and rode on them round the streets to church 🐴
