The Rev. William Henry
Will lead the joint Palm Sunday Service in Maze Presbyterian Church.
Churches in and around the Maze area will hold a joint Palm
Sunday evening service in Maze Presbyterian Church on Sunday
9th April at 6.30pm. The five churches involved are Maze
Presbyterian; Priesthill Methodist; St. Matthews - Broomhedge;
St. James�s - Kilwarlin (Lower); and St. John�s - Kilwarlin
(Upper). The Rev William Henry - Maze Presbyterian will
lead the service, the Rev. Robert Wallace - Priesthill
Methodist, will give the address, the Rev. Peter Galbraith -
St. Matthews and the Rev. David Pierce - St. James and St.
John�s will take the Scripture readings, and the praise will
be led by a joint choir from the five churches.
Members from each church will also led in prayer for the
locality and world with a special focus on Wycliffe Bible
Translators who aim to make the bible available in languages
and dialects in which there is as yet no translated copy of
the bible. The offering on the night will go towards
this work.
Palm Sunday has an air of joy and anticipation as
Christians reflect on the initial welcome arrival of Jesus
into Jerusalem as he made his determined way to the cross to
bring salvation for sinners. The emotions of that first
Palm Sunday are the focus of the service and there will also
be the opportunity to reflect on the meaning of the events of
Easter through an audio-visual presentation. Everyone is
invited to this joint service and to share in supper
afterwards.
