Palm Sunday
Join us in celebrating Palm Sunday! Also known as Passion Sunday, this special worship service serves to commemorate Jesus’ triumphant entry into Jerusalem.
“This Sunday is called “Palm Sunday”. The name comes from a story in the Bible in which Jesus entered the city of Jerusalem. Prior to this event, Jesus and his friends roamed the countryside teaching and performing miracles, gaining a lot of recognition. The people of Jerusalem were super-excited that Jesus was coming to their city to celebrate a big religious festival. In their excitement, the people grabbed palm branches to wave around and threw their cloaks before Jesus on the road.” –UMC.org
