Easter At St Swithin's Easter 2020 is going to be different for all of us this year as we celebrate Easter in our homes. The Easter story has dramatic highs and lows, with a compelling narrative and an unexpected but glorious outcome. 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. Happy Palm Sunday everyone! We're journeying together through Holy Week with some daily Bible passages and morning reflections at 9:30am.
