This year, as in previous years, IGC took part in the Palm Sunday march of witness. The march started at 12:45pm on Palm Sunday (28th March) at St. Margaret’s Vicarage, Rectory Lane.
The morning service at IGC that day started early with coffee and danish pastries at 9:30am (!), and the service itself starting at 10am. This enabled us to finish the service at 12 noon giving everyone enough time to get to St. Margaret’s for the start of the march at 12:45pm.
The march is a great way to witness to the local community, as we walk through the centre of Edgware with a donkey and palm leaves to mark how Jesus walked into Jerusalem a week before His crucifixion. The march takes us through Station Road, turning left into the Edgware Road and then left again as we finish our march in the Broadwalk car park. There we have a short time of open air praise and worship to round off the event. It’s been great fun and hopefully sends a powerful message about the story behind Easter.
This year’s march was very well attended with congregations from all across the local area meeting and praising God together.
We have a collection of photographs from the event, which will be uploaded here shortly, so you too can re-live the action.
