Today was the warmest day of the year so far, and the town centre of Abingdon was busy. The Farmer’s Market saw more trade than usual, it being Good Friday – a bank holiday.
At 11:45 members from the Church in Abingdon met near the library, and after a short prayer processed behind a wooden cross to the Market Place.
At the Market Place they sang a well known Easter Hymn.
They then continued to St Nicolas Church for a service led by Deacon Selina Nisbett, to hear the first part of the Easter Story, The Crucifixion of Jesus.
Here are short extracts from the parade with the singing of ‘When I survey the wondrous cross’ and ‘My song is love unknown’.
Good to see some faces – or at least some backs of heads – that i remember from the Church in Abingdon.
Happy Easter, everyone!
Thanks David of Rugby. Happy Easter to you. Here is a picture of what we did when you were here … https://abingdonblog.co.uk/?p=803
