Palm Sunday Service

Occurring
for 1 hour
Venue
East Ilsley: St Mary
Address
Church Hill East Ilsley Newbury, RG20 7LU, United Kingdom

You are warmly invited to join us as we gather to mark the beginning of Holy Week on Palm Sunday. Together we will remember Jesus’ journey into Jerusalem — welcomed with palm branches and shouts of hope — and reflect on the story that leads us towards Easter.

This service will include scripture, prayer, and space for reflection as we walk together through this important moment in the Christian story. Whether church is a familiar place for you or you are simply curious, you are very welcome.

People of all ages and backgrounds are invited to come as they are. There will be palm crosses to take home, and we will share in bread and wine as signs of God’s love given for the whole world.

We would love you to join us as our community gathers to begin this journey through Holy Week together.
