The church survived the Great Fire but was destroyed during the Blitz and lovingly restored — the building as well as its people are a sign of resurrection and new life.Our striking east window shows Christ both in his Passion, suffering on the cross, and in glory, the cross shining behind him — holding together the holy tension at the heart of Easter: that through Christ’s death comes the promise of resurrection and new life for the whole world. We hope you will join us this Easter as we celebrate that hope: light shining in the darkness and life rising where once there was death.Sunday 29th March 2026 – 11.00am-12.15pm – Palm Sunday Holy Communion & ProcessionWith blessing of palms, procession and the singing of the Passion Gospel by our professional choir.
