St Lawrence Church Denton
Free entry Refreshments available
St Lawrence Denton, one of the ten most recognised features of Tameside, have reordered the historical black and white Tudor church building combining past, present and future to make it the local community hub in the 21st century.
‘Experience Pentecost’ (also known as Whitsuntide, remember the Whit Walks?) is designed to enable everyone to gain a fuller understanding of the significance of this major festival of the church which is celebrated 50 days after Easter.
Central to this festival is the coming of the person of the Holy Spirit, but unlike Christmas, Easter and Harvest, there is no recognition of it in the outside world by means of present-giving, chocolate or giving to the needy.
However, this is where the Church began, and gives the start of the ongoing story after the Resurrection of Jesus, and explains why there is a church today.
Six stations will be set up around the church to provide an interactive, multi-sensory way to engage imaginatively with the events surrounding Pentecost, dealing with issues of Waiting, Receiving, Telling, Doing, Sharing and Growing.
We hope you will be able to join us.
