7:00pm FILM : INTO GREAT SILENCE
The strictest monastic order in Christendom has opened its cloisters to a film director for the first time, allowing him to shoot a three-hour near-silent documentary about its life. What some critics feared would be this year's most boring movie turns out to be a strangely fascinating meditation on the Grande Chartreuse monastery in the French Alps.

8:00pm THE LAST SUPPER, THE FOOTWASHING,THE STRIPPING OF THE ALTAR AND THE VIGIL WATCH OF THE PASSION
In the liturgy of Maundy Thursday, we recall the events of Jesus’ last hours with his companions. We share the communion, 12 members of the congregation have their feet washed, we process into the dark church and remember the agony of Gethsemane, finally gathering around the altar which is stripped bare, a reminder of the final desertion of our Lord. From the end of the service (about 9.15 pm) there is a vigil of prayer in the chapel until midnight. You are invited to sign up, on the chapel notice board, for a half hour period.
