Easter At St Swithin's

As we come journey through Holy Week to Easter we are reminded that despite all that is going on in our personal lives,
​within the family of St Swithin’s and across the world, Easter is a special time of year.  

The Easter story has dramatic highs and lows, with a compelling narrative and an unexpected but glorious outcome.
​Easter 2020 is going to be different for all of us this year as we celebrate Easter in our homes.

At the centre of the Easter story is the Death and Resurrection of one person, Jesus Christ. 
​Why do Christians believe that an empty cross and an empty tomb show God’s extraordinary love for all people?

 Join us this Easter time as we enter into that story of 2000 years ago and discover that it still offers us tangible hope amongst the darkness and confusion of our world.

Join The Journey

To help us journey together over Holy Week, we have included a poster below with a theme, Bible passage and activity for each day.
