Access to the Church buildings
The number of users of our premises is increasing, so if you are planning to ‘pop in’ to do something in the building, it may be useful to check that the room you want to enter is available. Here are charts showing both the regular and ‘ad hoc’ bookings when rooms may not be available:

Good Friday
Although not a partnership event, our friends at Christ Church have asked us to advertise this event taking place on Good Friday at Christ Church:
Swindon Recital Series (artistic director Paul Turner) is arranging a performance of Brahms German Requiem, on Good Friday, 3 April, at 7.30 pm .
Unlike the traditional Catholic Requiem Mass, Brahms’ masterpiece is very much in the Lutheran tradition, it is not in Latin and uses Biblical texts as the basis for the work which is melodic and lyrical.
Easter Sunday
5.30 am Dawn Communion in the grounds of Holy Rood on the Lawns led by Revd Rach Collins
10.30 am Easter Praise at Immanuel
Sunday 12th April
Our worship today will be led by members of the church choir,,,so we guess there wilol be additional anthems and definitely a ‘musical theme’
Sunday 19th April
The Service (including communion) will be led by the minister and afterwards the church will hold its Annual General Meeting, with election of new elders
Sunday 26th April
Farewell to Robert
Sunday 26th April will be the final service that Robert Jordan leads worship at Immanuel as our minister: at the end of the month he retires from full-time ministry. On Sunday, Immanuel with Highworth will be hosting friends and visitors from the URC as well as from Bath Road and Christ Church at what we hope will be a memorable service.
After the usual post-service tea and coffee, there will be a “bring and share” lunch. We hope to see lots of old friends that day,
Taking place every month
Tea and Chat
On the Second Tuesday of each month from 2.30 – 4.00
Come along and enjoy a good ‘cuppa’ and a biscuit or slice of cake
together with friends from the church and local community.
We’d love to see you with us
