Easter Services

This Easter you are welcome to attend any of the churches in Ilkley for the many services on offer.

Service listings start with Palm Sunday (March 29th), the final Sunday of Lent which marks the start of Holy Week and commemorates Jesus' triumphant entry into Jerusalem on a donkey, one week before his resurrection. 

Services continue through the week and many offer a service on Maudy Thursday (April 2nd) which marks the night of the Last Supper as told in the Bible.

On Good Friday, commemorating the crucifixion, suffering, and death of Jesus Christ, many churches hold a range of services.    Churches Together in Ilkley will not be holding the traditional Walk of Witness this year and will instead be offering hot cross buns from all their churches on Good Friday.

Easter Sunday starts for many in Ilkley with the Churches Together in Ilkley 'Sunrise' service at the Cow and Calf Rocks - this year meeting at 6.20am.
