The King of Kings – in cinemas April 11th
The King of Kings, follows the story of Charles Dickens captivating his son, Walter, by narrating the story of Jesus. What begins as a bedtime tale becomes a life-changing journey. Through vivid imagination, the boy walks alongside Jesus, witnessing His miracles, facing His trials, and understanding His ultimate sacrifice. The King of Kings invites us to rediscover the enduring power of hope, love, and redemption through the eyes of a child.

Come and Sing John Stainer’s Crucifixion
Come and Sing John Stainer’s “The Crucifixion”
St Mary’s Denham, Saturday 12 April
This event will be led by our choir master Stephen Armstrong, who is an experienced conductor and has been musical director of a range of choirs, including aLUMNI in Cambridge.
John Stainer’s oratorio The Crucifixion was composed in 1887 and has been performed annually at Marylebone Church since then. It includes well known pieces such as All for Jesus and God so Loved the World.
Howard E. Smither describes the piece as “the most important English work on the Passion”. He observes that structurally the work owes much to J.S. Bach’s repertoire of Passions, and also notes its popularity for Passiontide church performances throughout the English-speaking world.
Join the Choir!
The day will start with registration at 9.30am. After a morning rehearsal, there will be a lunch break, then the dress rehearsal and the performance at 3pm. We will be joined by excellent musicians (organist and soloists) to make this an unforgettable experience.
Please note that lunch will NOT be provided but you are welcome to stay at St Mary’s to eat your packed lunch (hot drinks will be provided through the day).
A ticket for the whole experience is £10. You can hire the music for £1 if you need it.
