Palm Sunday Journey

Choose the option which suits you best

Option 1: 10am Walk from Beckenham Methodist to Merchiston

Option 2: 10am Shorter Walk from St Martins to Merchiston

Option 3: Go directly to Merchiston for a 10.30am start

The service will conclude around 11.30am

Bring your own picnic lunch and a folding chair (and be able to carry it, if you are planning on walking).

If bringing a picnic blanket, one that has a water-resistant/proof backing would be better, in case the grass is damp.

Tea/coffee will be available. 

Should the weather be inclement the service will be combined at one of the churches.
