Good Friday Walk of Witness

So, this year, on Good Friday, what are you doing to remember that Jesus died on the cross and rose again? Is it something worth getting out of bed for on a Sunday morning? Is it something worth walking 1 mile for? Is it something worth 20 minutes of your time on Friday lunchtime?

Starting from 3 churches around Barnstaple at 11.30 (Pilton, Sticklepath and Grosvenor), groups will be walking in to the town centre and meeting up for a short time of worship (classic tracks: 'Amazing Grace', 'When I survey the wondrous Cross', and 'The Lord's my Shepherd'), a brief message of encouragement and hope, and a prayer. Its nothing scary, but it would be great if the whole town noticed the presence of Christians in their midst at this time.

Good Friday is one of those times when the world is saying 'isn't this something to do with God and Jesus?', and the answer we want to give is 'yes', so come and be part of it.

Jesus died on a cross for all humanity, have you got some spare time this Friday to say thank you?

  1. Forgot to say where we are meeting in town- 12pm outside Banbury's, if you can't make one of the earlier meet ups.
