A very blessed and happy Easter to our friends across the world and to @EpsomCollegeUK @CofEGuildford @ArmyChaplaincy @ArmyCadetsUK @SWLACF
Great fun in our community this morning - good turnout, great hymns and look who appeared…!

[Army Cadets - Lead D&I Advisor @AC_INCLUSION]

Over Easter weekend Christians will be taking time to pray and reflect on their lives. Being committed to faith even in times of challenge connects us to the Easter story. Spring is bringing in light as did Jesus through his resurrection.

Enjoy time with family & cadet family ✝️

[Royal Army Chaplains’ Department @ArmyChaplaincy]

Holy Saturday marks the end of Holy Week and is a day of reflection and waiting for Christ’s resurrection. 🙏

The Deputy Chaplain General shares some thoughtful words below relating to the period between crucifixion and resurrection. ✝

A privilege to officiate the wedding of Amelia and Marcus this afternoon in St Luke’s Chapel @EpsomCollegeUK. Such a joyous service of love and celebration! Amelia was a pupil in @EpsomC_Wilson and we welcomed back many other former pupils to their chapel. #wedding #celebration

Today, in St Luke’s Chapel @EpsomCollegeUK in @CofEGuildford we took time to remember …

[Chaplaincy at Epsom College @EpsomC_Chaplain]

Senior students, part of @EpsomCollegeUK Holocaust Memorial Ambassador Programme, gave an enlightening presentation in chapel today, referring to the trips we made to @AuschwitzMuseum and the Holocaust exhibit @I_W_M. They suggested ways to help prevent this happening again.

[Chaplaincy at Epsom College @EpsomC_Chaplain]

Remember and think…@HMD_UK - and we will @EpsomCollegeUK in @CofEGuildford

[Chaplaincy at Epsom College @EpsomC_Chaplain]

On @HMD_UK we celebrated Holy Communion in St Luke’s Chapel @EpsomCollegeUK remembering all who have been taken away from
family and friends for their faith or their values. Keeping the candle lit in times of darkness. @CofEGuildford

[Chaplaincy at Epsom College @EpsomC_Chaplain]

Quite an amazing story. Bless him and all who stand up for those suffering oppression.

I watch this video every Holocaust Remembrance Day. And I cry every time, because it revives my hope in humanity!

This is Nicholas Winton, who rescued 669 (mostly Jewish) children from Czechoslovakia during the Holocaust & brought them to Britain in the Kindertransport.

[dahlia kurtz ✡︎ דליה קורץ @DahliaKurtz]

This is one of the most beautiful moments you will ever witness.

Sir Nicholas Winton helped 669 children — most of them Jewish — escape the Holocaust.

His humanitarian accomplishments would remain unknown and unnoticed by the world for nearly 50 years.

Then in 1988 he was invited to the BBC TV show That's Life!. There he sat — unknowingly — as part of the studio audience, surrounded by the children he had rescued. They were now adults.

Then they surprised him with one of the greatest gifts of all time. Their presence.

They were there, all alive — because of him. Not only was he reunited with dozens of children he had saved, but he was also introduced to many of their children and grandchildren.

Please remember Sir Nicholas Winton, for his humanitarian operation known as the Czech Kindertransport.

Sir Nicholas George Winton, a British stockbroker, and a gift to this planet, left us on July 1, 2015, at the age of 106.

May his memory forever be a blessing and inspiration to all.

Please share. International Holocaust Day cannot be forgotten. But many are working to make that happen.

At the start of the exeat weekend I had the pleasure of baptising Josh and then James, pupils from @epsomcollegeuk in our beautiful chapel of St Luke. It was a joy to welcome their families and closest friends to be with them at this very special time in their lives. #family
