Easter Sunday On Line Service – 4th April 2021
Dear all,
Re: Necton Benefice Online Service for Easter Day 2021
Please find below the link for this morning’s online service for Easter Day. Please note that this is premiered for 10.30am to coincide with our Easter Day service at All Saints Necton, so that in theory we are all celebrating Easter at the same time. The sermon is based on John 20.1-18 which speaks of ‘The Empty Tomb’ and the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
There is a Benefice service at 10.30 today at At Saints, Necton.
Happy Easter
