Palm Sunday procession
St John's Seven Kings and St Paul's Goodmayes held our annual Palm Sunday procession and service today with approximately 180 people attending (our largest attendance to date). This year the procession began at St John's Seven Kings, where both congregations gathered and where we dedicated at banner made by the St John's Banner Group which will be sent out to St Michael's at Camp Bastion in Afghanistan. We then processed along Meads Lane led by Gordon the donkey (on which children took it in turns to ride), crucifer, robed choir and clergy. At Westwood Recreation Ground we read the Gospel and blessed our palm crosses before processing along Atholl Road to St Paul's Goodmayes where our service ended with communion.
