Palm Sunday represents the start of Holy Week.
Beginning outside of Palace Green, the clergy process into the Cathedral, echoing Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem.
Members of the congregation are given palm crosses, representing Christ’s victory over death on the cross. It also reminds us that, just days after his triumphant kingly arrival when people spread palm leaves on the floor for him to walk on, Jesus would be crucified.
On Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter Day we will be welcoming guest preacher Revd Dr Kate Bruce, an RAF chaplain based at Brize Norton. Kate was previously a chaplain and Deputy Warden at St John's College Durham and is co-author of two books on women in the Bible called 'Out of the Shadows'.
