DESCRIPTION:The preparation and penitence of Lent comes to a climax in the
  events of Holy Week and Easter. All are welcome to join us for the first 
 of our special Holy Week services on Palm Sunday\, 29th March\, and we beg
 in in celebratory mood.\n\nMusic at the service is performed by our profes

 mon: The Revd Canon Dr Alison Joyce\, Rector of St Bride’s\nAnthem: Hosa
 nna to the Son of David – Thomas Weelkes \n\nThe crowds hail Jesus as th
 eir Messiah\, laying palms before him as he enters Jerusalem as they cry\,
  “Hosanna to the Son of David: Blessed is He who comes in the name of th
 e Lord.”\n\nYet Christ enters his own city in order to complete his work
  as our Saviour through his suffering\, death and resurrection.\n\nDuring 
 our first hymn the congregation leave the church and process around it sin
 ging\, blessed palm crosses held aloft as symbols of Jesus’ coming victo
 ry and in re-enactment of that triumphant day:\n\n‘All glory\, laud\, an
 d honour\nto thee\, Redeemer\, King\,\nto whom the lips of children\nmade 
 sweet hosannas ring.’\n\nThis service will also stream online on this pa
 ge at the same time as the service in church\, and on our pages at Faceboo
 k\, YouTube and SoundCloud.\n\nSUPPORT ST BRIDE'S\nThere will be a collect

 St Bride's and help maintain our magnificent Wren church.\n\nSt Bride's is
  wholly reliant on and deeply grateful for the generous support of our vis
 itors and congregation.\n\nDonations can be made by cash or contactless at
