Children - Friday, 7 April 2023 – Good Friday, Year A

Children could become restless during this service, which is solemn in nature, especially when there is a lot of talking. Yet many of us have clear memories of Good Friday in our own childhoods because of the visual, musical and dramatic contrast of this day to every other day in the church year. Therefore, make the most of the dramatic, musical and visual elements for the sake of children as well as adults, and try not to let the service become too ‘cluttered’ or ‘intellectual’.
