Palm Sunday

for 1 hour, 30 mins
St Peter & St Paul
Off B2099 Wadhurst, TN5, United Kingdom

Palm Sunday celebrates the triumphant entry of Jesus into Jerusalem as King, but it also marks the beginning of the journey that leads to the cross.

Since earliest times, the Gospel accounts relating both these events have been read on Palm Sunday, as a reminder that the crowd which shouted ‘Hosanna’ on Sunday is, by Friday, shouting ‘Crucify’. Today’s service, then, invites us to reflect that there may be, in all of us, this ambivalence between loving Christ and rejecting him.

St Peter & St Paul

Using the gifts God gives us, we bring others to Christ, deepen our faith in Him, develop the life of the church family, serve each other and the wider community and so express our worship to God in every part of life.

We are an Anglican church in the 'open evangelical' tradition. We welcome anyone who would answer 'yes' to the question 'do you want to follow Jesus?', and anyone who might just be interested in finding out more.
