Life
Palm Sunday opens Holy Week, commemorating Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem, when the crowds spread branches before him and hailed him as king. The liturgy begins with the blessing of palms and a procession, and also includes the solemn reading of the Passion narrative, joining the joy of the entry to the suffering that follows in the days ahead.
