Notes and helpful hints on these resources

We live in precarious times and we’ve never really been in a situation

where Holy Week and Easter can’t happen in Church. However, this
doesn’t mean that we can’t still pray and share in the different liturgies
and ceremonies of Holy Week and Easter and live out the story of
Jesus.

You may find it helpful to have a cross of some sort and a candle as a
visual focus. You might like the challenge of making a cross out of
whatever materials you have to hand.

Some people may like to follow these services as they are shared ‘live’
on the Facebook Page for St Peter’s www.facebook.com/stpeterseb and
the times are shown beside each service. If you are not online, then
you may wish to make an act of Spiritual Communion in place of where
the Eucharist would be and it may be helpful, though not essential, to
use these liturgies at the same time as the services are broadcast for a
sense of connection.

If there is more than one of you taking part at home, you may wish to
share in leading the services or reading the Bible Readings. Some of the
services might encourage you to move a bit if you’re able. It’s probably
a good plan to have a flick through before you start a service just to
check what might be needed.

bible.oremus.org is a useful resource if you’d like a modern

translation of the Bible (if you haven’t already got one).

Above all, know and trust that we do not pray alone or in spiritual
isolation. We join our prayers with Christians around the world and
with the whole company of Heaven as we worship and adore God.

May God Bless you this Holy Week. The Rector.

Palm Sunday
You will need: a Cross, a Bible and the Spiritual Communion sheet.
This will be live streamed on facebook.com/stpeterseb at 9.30am
You may also wish to have a candle lit as a sign of Christ’s presence with you.

Introduction

Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, during Lent we have been

preparing by works of love and self-sacrifice for the celebration of our
Lord’s death and resurrection. Today we come together to begin this
solemn celebration in union with the Church throughout the world.
Christ enters his own city to complete his work as our Saviour, to
suffer, to die, and to rise again. Let us go with him in faith and love, so
that, united with him in his sufferings, we may share his risen life.

Hold your Cross whilst saying this prayer.

God our Saviour,

whose Son Jesus Christ entered Jerusalem as Messiah
to suffer and to die;
let this Cross be for us a sign of his victory
and grant that we who bear them in his name
may ever hail him as our King,
and follow him in the way that leads to eternal life.
Through the same, Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

The Palm Gospel

which is the path of glory.
Amen.

 Prayers of Intercession
Let us pray.

For forgiveness for the many times we have denied Jesus,

let us pray to the Lord. Lord, have mercy.

For grace to seek out those habits of sin which mean

spiritual death, and by prayer and self-discipline to overcome them,
let us pray to the Lord. Lord, have mercy.

For Christian people,

that through the suffering of disunity
there may grow a rich union in Christ,
let us pray to the Lord. Lord, have mercy.

For those who make laws, interpret them, and administer them,
that our common life may be ordered in justice and mercy,
let us pray to the Lord. Lord, have mercy.

For those who still make Jerusalem a battleground,

let us pray to the Lord. Lord, have mercy.

For those who have the courage and honesty to work openly for
justice and peace,
let us pray to the Lord. Lord, have mercy.

For those in the darkness and agony of isolation,

that they may find support and encouragement,
let us pray to the Lord. Lord, have mercy.

For those who, weighed down with hardship, failure, or sorrow,

feel that God is far from them,
let us pray to the Lord. Lord, have mercy.

5
For those who are tempted to give up the way of the cross,
let us pray to the Lord. Lord, have mercy.

That we, with those who have died in faith,

may find mercy in the day of Christ,
let us pray to the Lord. Lord, have mercy.

A few moments of silence are kept before the prayers conclude

Holy God,
holy and strong,
holy and immortal,
have mercy upon us.

The Eucharist will be celebrated through facebook, but those not online you

Prayer

Lord Jesus Christ,

you humbled yourself in taking the form of a servant,
and in obedience died on the cross for our salvation:
give us the mind to follow you
and to proclaim you as Lord and King,

Maundy Thursday Vigil
Ordinarily at this point, the Blessed Sacrament would be moved to the Altar
of Repose and the Church stripped of its adornments ready for Good Friday.
You may wish to light a candle we will livestream this at 8pm on

We begin by singing or saying the Taize chant Ubi Caritas

Ubi Caritas, et amor, ubi caritas, deus ibi est

Psalm 88 is slowly read with the response

Jerusalem, Jerusalem, return to the Lord your God.

We simply to keep a period of silence as we watch and wait with Our Lord in
the Garden of Gethsemane.The candle signifying his presence.

The Vigil concludes with

The Gospel of the Watch
Read: Luke 22.31-62. Or, more simply,

When the disciples had sung a hymn they went out to the Mount of
Olives. Jesus prayed to the Father, ‘If it is possible, take this cup of
suffering from me.’ He said to his disciples, ‘How is it that you were not
able to keep watch with me for one hour? The hour has come for the
Son of Man to be handed over to the power of sinners.’

Christ was obedient unto death. Go in his peace.

We end in silence.

You may wish to depart to bed at this point but please ensure that the
candle is extinguished.

13
Good Friday: 3 o’clock at the Cross.
You will need: a Bible, a Cross.You may also wish to have a candle lit at the
beginning.This is a solemn service of the last hour. We come to be with Jesus
in his hour of need, to remember his passion and death upon the cross and
to reflect on the deep themes that the cross evokes in us.Today we use the
three last words of Christ as recorded in John’s Gospel as the focus for our
reflection and prayer.

Those who are online may join The Rector for this service at 3pm
www.facebook.com/stpeterseb
Introduction

The service begins with silence, then the Collect.

Collect

Almighty Father,
look with mercy on this your family
for which our Lord Jesus Christ was content to be betrayed
and given up into the hands of sinners
and to suffer death upon the cross;
who is alive and glorified with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.
Amen.

In the shadow of our suffering, is the suffering of Jesus

In the shadow of our weakness, is the vulnerability of Christ
In the shadow of our pain, is the God who cried out
We are never rejected, we are never abandoned.

Reading John 19.16-25

Silence is kept.

14
 “Here is your son”

So we come to the first of our words from the cross, words spoken by
Jesus to Mary his mother and the beloved disciple, John.

Reading John 19.25-7

Reflection
Consider the human heart of Jesus, shown in his care for his mother
and the beloved disciple John. These two have traveled with him all the
way and now they find themselves at the foot of the cross. Grief has
brought them together and now Jesus asks them to care for each other.
In the face of his own death, Jesus is creating new bonds of family and
interdependence. Not based on ties of blood and family, but upon
choice. A common endeavour and strong sense of belonging can be like
a family, creating a basic block for repairing communities. This
intentional community of love to which we belong, remains steadfast
even when we are separated from one another. Because it is formed in
the bond of love given right there from upon the cross.

Silence: We take into the silence: our own grief and sense of loss, our
aloneness.We surround these senses with the picture of our church family,
the Christians across the world with whom we are bonded through our
baptism.

Be strong, let your heart take courage all who wait for the Lord

Lord Jesus, son of the living God, have mercy upon us.

Holy God,
Holy and Strong,
Holy and Immortal, have mercy upon us.

15
 “I am thirsty”

So we come to the second word from the cross, Jesus cries out in pain
and need.

Reading John 19.28-9

Reflection
The word from the cross speaks of real human need, the most basic
need of all. In the heat of the sun and wracked by pain, Jesus cries out ‘I
thirst’, I am thirsty, give me drink. He who is the living water, bubbling
up for others to fi nd life, he is thirsty - and these words, express that
need. Jesus lived a life of generous giving, he poured himself out for
others. But he was not afraid to name and know his own real needs. He
was not afraid to ask for help. In this cry from the cross ‘I am thirsty’,
we see his willingness to receive, and to be needy. In a world full of
competence, which prizes strength and self-reliance, these words can
encourage us to acknowledge our own incompetence and vulnerability,
our own real needs. It takes a certain level of humility to receive from
others; and we don’t fi nd it easy, yet it’s important to learn how to give
and receive with good grace.

Silence: We take into the silence: our own dryness and thirst, our own
deepest needs, an openness to receive. Our shared vulnerability with the who
of humanity.

Be strong, let your heart take courage all who wait for the Lord

Lord Jesus, son of the living God, have mercy upon us.

Holy God,
Holy and Strong,
Holy and Immortal, have mercy upon us.

16
 “It is finished”

In our fi nal word from the cross, Jesus knows that the end is near and
calls out.

Reading John 19.30

Reflection
The last word from the cross in St John’s Gospel: ‘It is fi nished’. The
horror is over, it is accomplished, the work is done. In the eyes of the
world, this is the moment of absolute failure; but in the purposes of
God, this is the consummation of an act of unconditional love for the
world. These words don’t imply a defeated sense of relief that Jesus’
suffering is over, his life is ending: the Greek word tetelestai is a word
with a strong, triumphant rung, ‘It is accomplished.’ ‘It is complete.’
For Jesus there is recognition in the words ‘It is finished’ that death
comes as the completion of a life lived to the full, offered for others.
And as we understand this more fully, perhaps it even helps us to face
our own death without fear. We may even ultimately see death as a
friend, leading us home: ‘and thou most gentle death, waiting to hush
our latest breath, thou leanest home the child of God, and Christ
himself that way has trod’ (St. Francis, Canticle of the Sun)

Silence: We take into the silence: our own sense of mortality, our own
accomplishments, an openness to what lies beyond our horizon.

Be strong, let your heart take courage all who wait for the Lord

Lord Jesus, son of the living God, have mercy upon us.

Holy God,
Holy and Strong,
Holy and Immortal, have mercy upon us

17
 The Proclamation of the Cross

You may like to look at a picture of, or hold a physical cross in your hand.

Reading John 19.31-42

Acclamations
We adore you, O Christ, and we bless you, because by your holy
cross you have redeemed the world.

This is the wood of the cross, on which hung the Saviour of the world.
Come, let us worship.

O Saviour of the world, who by your cross and precious blood have
redeemed us, save us and help us, we humbly pray.

Lord, hear us.

Lord, graciously hear us.

O God of unchangeable power and eternal light,

look favourably on your whole Church,
that wonderful and sacred mystery,
and by the tranquil operation of your perpetual providence
carry out the work of our salvation:
and let the whole world feel and see
that things which were cast down are being raised up
and things which had grown old are being made new
and that all things are returning to perfection
through him from whom they took their origin,
even Jesus Christ our Lord,
who is alive and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.
Amen.

We end in silence.
