Meet outside St Cuthbert’s, Pateley Bridge.
We gather with the other Christian denominations as the Church in the Dale to walk together from the steps of St Cuthbert’s church, Pateley Bridge through the High Street. We do this to remember that Jesus had to carry his cross publicly through the streets of Jerusalem. It is a public statement of our faith, a retelling of the crucifixion story and a reminder of Jesus’ words ‘Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me.’ We stop outside various sites for readings and to sing hymns.
