A pre-recorded Meditation for Good Friday, led by Rt Rev Julian Henderson, Bishop of Blackburn, is available now on the Diocesan YouTube channel. It was recorded via Zoom. You can watch the service here.
Also, via this general Diocesan YouTube Channel link Bishop Julian can also be seen leading a Maundy Thursday Service (now available) and on Easter Sunday morning Bishop Julian, Rt Rev Philip North, Bishop of Burnley and Rt Rev Dr Jill Duff, Bishop of Lancaster, will join together on YouTube for a special Easter Sunday service (released at 9am that day on YouTube).
All these services have been recorded in advance and will remain on the channel permanently after initial uploading.
In addition, and before the lockdown, Bishop Philip also made three recordings at St Laurence Church in Chorley: Maundy Thursday Eucharist of the Lord’s Supper; Good Friday Liturgy of the Day (with reading of St John’s Passion) and an Easter Morning Eucharist with Renewal of Baptismal Promises.
These are available on the St Laurence YouTube channel on and after the relevant days.
