Holy week and Easter in Bellshill 

Walking with Jesus: Holy Week and Easter at Bellshill Central

As Holy Week approaches, Bellshill Central Parish Church invites you to journey through the story of Jesus — from the joy of Palm Sunday to the heartbreak of Good Friday, and finally to the radiant hope of Easter morning.

Palm Sunday (29th March).

We begin with celebration: waving palms and singing praise as we remember Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem. Worship at 11am will be joyful and all-age friendly. Following the service you’re invited to stay behind for Hot Cross Buns and tea/coffee.

Monday Zoom Holy Week Prayers (30th March).

We begin the week quietly and prayerfully with a short time of reflection on Zoom at 7.30pm. This gentle gathering offers space to pause, breathe, and listen for God’s voice as we step into the journey of Holy Week together. All are welcome to join from home — cameras on or off, simply as you are

Wednesday Film Night (1st April).  

On Wednesday evening we pause the rush of the week and gather for a relaxed film night at 7pm. With a thought‑provoking Easter‑themed film, refreshments, and space for gentle conversation afterwards, it’s a warm mid‑week moment to reflect, unwind, and share fellowship together.

Maundy Thursday (2nd April).

A quiet, reflective service at 7pm will mark the Last Supper. We’ll share bread and wine, and remember Jesus’ command to love and serve one another.

Good Friday (3rd April).

From 10am, we gather in solemn reflection. Through readings, music, and silence, we’ll walk with Jesus to the cross. Come for the full morning or just when you can.

Easter Sunday (5th April).

The garden will greet the dawn with worship at 9am, celebrating resurrection in the open air. Breakfast follows — hot drinks, and fellowship. At 11am, our family worship with Communion will proclaim the risen Christ with joy, colour, and song.

All are welcome to walk this sacred week with us. Whether you come with questions, with faith, or simply with curiosity — there is space for you here.
