Around 200 children from Cherry tree, Statham Oughtrington and Ravenbank Schools came to Experience Easter at St Mary’s Church Lymm. Experience Easter is a series of six interactive displays telling the story of Easter where the children will be guided by church volunteers through the displays and will always have an activity to do at each display, for example at the Hopes and Dreams display which tells the story of Palm Sunday there is a road, palm leaves and a cross. Children are invited to pick up a stone, draw or write their hope and dream upon it, then place it at the foot of the cross. The displays are not just for children, many adults can also join in the activities or have a quiet moment to reflect and pray in the run up to Easter. St Mary’s church is open Monday Tuesdays and Wednesdays between 10.00am and 12.00noon for general members of the public to visit. There is also an informal reflective service 10.30am Good Friday 19 April which is suitable for families and is another opportunity to see the Experience Easter Displays
