We had a wonderful family service at Holy Trinity Church on Palm Sunday. The service was led by Connor Hansford, Holy Trinity’s Youth Worker, and Trudi Shaw, Church Warden and included a play presented by a group of young people. The high point of the service was the arrival of two donkeys, Annie and Dainty, who led the procession, recalling the procession of Jesus into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday. Connor works closely with the pupils of Holy Trinity Primary School and will be starting a Wayfarers meeting on Sundays starting on 16th April. For more information please see events
