Palm Sunday Service (Celtic Service of the Word)

for 1 hour
St John the Baptist
West Street (access by footpath between buildings) New Alresford Winchester, SO24 9AG, United Kingdom
On this day we remember Jesus’ arrival in Jerusalem riding on a donkey and the welcome that the crowds gave to him just five days before they turned and demanded his death. Everyone goes home with a cross made from a palm leaf to remember how the crowd’s welcome changed and resulted in the crucifixion.

This service will be live-streamed on Facebook.

It has been the Parish Church of New Alresford since 1851. However, we know from the Domesday Book that there was a church in New Alresford soon after the Norman Conquest. Until 1851 it was part of the Parish of Old Alresford.
