Holy Week ‘In the Round’
This year for Holy Week, we re-positioned our new chairs in a circle on the polished concrete floor surrounding the portable altar. This helped us encounter Jesus afresh: amongst the misguided crowds of Palm Sunday; with the disciples at the Last Supper and foot washing of Maundy Thursday; at the foot of the cross on Good Friday (see photos 1-3); in the darkness of the Easter Saturday Vigil (photos 4 & 5); and at the empty tomb on Easter Day (photo 6).
Soiree - Fri 23 May
Experience St Michael’s first annual Soiree since removing its carpet and pews, and opening up the space with polished concrete floors and comfy chairs. Quality live music, good company, and wine and cheese: what else do you need to feel mellow at the end of a late autumn week in down town New Farm? For more details, see flyer below. For bookings:
