What is Palm Sunday?
Palm Sunday marks the day when Jesus first rode into Jerusalem, knowing that he would make the ultimate sacrifice for our sins. Jesus rode in on his donkey, his followers laying palm branches at his feet. At that time palm branches were considered a symbol of peace - something that Jesus had brought to many people in the bible.
Palm Sunday also marks the first day of Holy Week, a special time where we think about Jesus’ time in Jerusalem before he was crucified.
Churches around the world will be celebrating Palm Sunday with palm crosses, a special cross made from palm fronds and blessed with a Palm Sunday prayer before being handed out to congregations.
Matthew 21:9
"The crowds that went ahead of him and those that followed shouted, 'Hosanna to the Son of David!' 'Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!' 'Hosanna in the highest heaven!'
