HEXHAM ABBEY
The Priory and Parish Church of St Andrew
Sunday 26th April
Fourth Sunday of Easter
Welcome to the Abbey today as we gather for worship and
fellowship. During communion all are invited to come forward
for bread and wine or a blessing – if for a blessing simply keep
your head bowed. We do hope you can stay for refreshments
and the Annual Parochial Church Meeting followed by ‘Bring
and Share’ lunch in the North Transept. Children’s activities will
be available in the Song School during the APCM, and all are
very welcome.
 Junior Church please join the opening procession and you will be
guided to your group in the Priory Buildings.
 Sunday Tots (0-5) make your way to the Priory Buildings through the
Cloister Porch door during the first hymn.
