,Palm Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week! (Get more information on Holy Week worship here)
Today we remember Jesus’ triumphant entry into Jerusalem. The people of Jerusalem shout cries of “Hosanna!” and it is a cry for help- “Hosanna” in Hebrew literally means, “Save us, now!” At first, the crowds celebrate the saving presence of Jesus but in a matter of days, the same shouts of joy will turn into condemnation as Jesus is betrayed and crucified. On this day we remember the human capacity to love as well as create pain, and God's love that is always faithful.
