This is an image of the Last Supper as if it were held on Zoom during lockdown

Order of service for Thursday
If you want to click on some of the links you can do them individually or one video should automatically follow the other.


On the Thursday we remember the Story of Jesus:

His last meal with his disciples (the Last supper) a Celebration of the Passover            
       - Read Matt 26:17-30 or watch and listen

His praying in the garden of Gethsemane.  Watch and Listen
His arrest and first trial before the Jewish leaders and Peters denial
First Trial Matt 26:57-67 
 Peters denial of Jesus- Matt 26:69-75  or watch and listen  

As an alternative you can watch an animated telling of the story
from the Jesus story book story 

Listen to this poem / Song – When you prayed beneath the trees

There is no sermon today but if you want to watch a video of the story of Matthews gospel you can watch this as it puts the crucifixion in the wider context of Jesus Struggle with the religious leaders.  Watch here

Make a Cross
 You may want to prepare for Good Friday by making a Paper Cross (or if you have Palm leaves you can use those)
To make a cross you may enjoy folding a strip of paper like this –
  1. Take a long strip of paper and make a 45 degree fold so the top third of the paper points towards the left.
  2. Take this end of the paper and fold it behind (mountain fold) and towards the right.
  3. Fold the paper back towards the left. Make sure the folds are straight so you don't cinch the centre portion of the cross.

  4. Loop the end of the paper towards the right and then back towards the centre of the cross.
  5. Adjust the loop so the left and right side are even. Press down to flatten the paper. This makes the left and right arms of the cross.
  6. Fold down the arms of the cross. A white, central square should be visible.
  7. Take the bottom end of the paper strip and weave it through the centre of the cross.


  1. Pull through completely. Once this is done, the model is quite stable and will not unravel.
  2. Bring the end of the paper back towards the centre of the cross and weave it through again.
  3. Pull through but leave enough paper so it makes the top part of the cross. This part should be slightly longer that the right and left arms of the cross.
  4. Bring the paper back up BEHIND the model and weave the end through the centre part of the cross. If necessary, cut off excess paper.

  1. Pull through as much as necessary to make a nicely proportioned cross. You can leave the arms of the cross slightly rounded, or press them down flat. Done!
