YOU ARE ALWAYS WELCOME AT ST LAURENCE CHURCH

Friends of St Laurence present
The Sid Bolan Big Band
Saturday 6th Apr at St Laurence Church
Based in Basildon, the band was formed over 30 years ago.
Performing with the band will be Blackmore’s own Debbie Stevens.
Tickets are £10 for members and £12 for non-members from 01277 821654. (Seating is theatre-style).

Godspell was the first major musical theatre offering from three-time Grammy and Academy Award winner, Stephen Schwartz (WickedPippinChildren of Eden), and it took the world by storm. Led by the international hit, “Day by Day,” Godspell features a parade of beloved songs, including “Prepare Ye the Way of the Lord,” “Learn Your Lessons Well,” “All for the Best,” “All Good Gifts,” “Turn Back, O Man” and “By My Side.”
A small group of people help Jesus tell different parables by using a wide variety of games, storytelling techniques and hefty doses of comic timing. An eclectic blend of songs, ranging in style from pop to vaudeville, is employed as the story of Jesus’ life dances across the stage. Dissolving hauntingly into the Last Supper and the Crucifixion, Jesus’ messages of kindness, tolerance and love come vibrantly to life.

Join us for worship on Sunday’s at 11.00am
