You are warmly invited to join us as we gather together as a benefice to celebrate Palm Sunday.
On this day, all four churches will come together for a shared service of Holy Communion at 11.00am at St Peter’s, Rowley. Palm Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week as we remember Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem, welcomed with joy and expectation, and begin the journey towards the events of the cross and Easter.
This service is an opportunity to worship together as one parish family, united in prayer, praise and fellowship at the start of this most important week in the Christian year.
Everyone is very welcome, whether you are part of one of our churches or joining us for the first time.

Stations of the Cross across the Benefice

During Holy Week, the Stations of the Cross are available in each of our four churches - All Hallows, Walkington; All Saints, Bishop Burton; St Peter’s, Rowley; and St Michael’s, Skidby.

While the churches are open during the daytime, you are warmly invited to come in, at a time that suits you, to pause and walk this prayerful journey. The Stations trace the path that Jesus took as he went towards the cross, offering space to reflect on his suffering, his love, and the cost of our salvation.

Taking time in the quiet of the church allows us to step aside from the pace and demands of daily life. The stillness of these sacred spaces helps us to slow down, to pray, and to draw closer to the heart of the story at the centre of our faith.

Whether you stay for a few minutes or longer, you are welcome to come, to reflect, and to place your own prayers and burdens before God as you walk the way of the cross.
