Good Friday: worship at Holy Trinity Chapel, Lamington


Join us for this special Tenebrae-Taize style service to mark Good Friday...

A note about the evening:
Worship will be based upon what is known as a Tenebrae service, traditionally used on Good Friday.
Over the course of this service, candles will be extinguished, mirroring the readings and meditations used, which recount the events of  that first Good Friday. 
The music used in the service comes from the Taize Community in France - an ecumenical and international group who employ simple chants in various languages as part of their tradition of worship.  Each of these simple - easy to pick up - songs is meant to be played several times, 
and aimed to create a meditation within music. 
The words will be provided, and as you feel comfortable with the music, please do join in with the music group - and feel free to add harmonies if you wish. 
We hope this service of music and meditation provides a prayerful space as we gather together this evening and watch and wait at the foot of the Cross...

UCPC would like to thank the Biggar Museum Trustees for allowing us to use the chapel, and for their very practical assistance as we explored the possibility of setting up this special service of worship.
