Conducted via Zoom or live-stream.

We only get a certain number of chances of celebrating the Easter mysteries so, each year should take us deeper in understanding how the story of this week releases the meaning of our own life. We share in the sufferings of Christ so we can share in his Resurrection. This year Laurence Freeman will focus on the suffering, which the world is undergoing and how this can transform us into a new and better humanity – if we can become one as prayed we would.

This event is held online.
