’Life Begins at 40’ in St Saviour’s, Craigavon

On Easter Sunday, one of our parishes will reach a milestone in its history. That day will mark 40 years since the first ever service in St. Saviour’s, Craigavon (then Tullygally). To mark this important occasion the parish is planning a whole week of events and activities to suit all ages and tastes. Many people say that ‘Life begins at 40,’ and that’s the title of this special week which runs from 31st March to 8th April.

“We are delighted to have special guests from England and all over the province coming to join us for the week,” says Evangelist in Charge. Sr Myrtle Morrison (CA). “Included are Roger Murphy, a gifted communicator and Paul Woodman, an escapologist and street theatre artist who is a clergyman in the Church of England in his spare time. Leading up to that, we have a team of 40 visitors who will be visiting in the parish to share their faith and personally invite folk along to the week’s events. We have already had some training for these visitors – one for each of the 40 years we’re celebrating.

“We hope and pray that this will be a significant week in the life of St Saviour’s as we prepare for the next 40 years under God’s leadership and direction.”
