Thy Kingdom Come

With just a few days before the start of Thy Kingdom Come, the period between Ascension Day and Pentecost there is still time to participate:

​

There are two Eucharist services at Holy Cross on Ascension Day - 13th May at 10.30am and 7.30pm.

​

There will be some prayer stations at Holy Cross from Monday 17th to 22nd May, where everyone is welcome to use this space for prayers.

​

Pentecost, 23rd May, there is no New Way service but Cathrine Ngangira will be co-leading a simple service at Kingswood Village Hall at 11am with Rev Mark Pavey. This will be outside.  If the weather is "inclement" then it will be a bookable indoor service. Details to follow. Pray for good weather!

​

Finally, as part of the global "Thy Kingdom Come" ecumenical initiative there's an opportunity to join the Maidstone Churches 24-7 Prayer vigil.  It's very simple - just sign up using the link below and wherever you are at that time (from 10am Thursday 13th May through to 10am on Pentecost Sunday, 23rd May) 24-7 Prayer International - Sign-Up
