Palm Sunday - Cathedral Eucharist with Blessing of Palms

Sunday 24th March, 11:00

Sung Eucharist with blessing of palm crosses.

This is the first day of Holy Week, marking the day Jesus entered Jerusalem on a donkey. A donkey was a symbol of peace, whereas horses were symbols of war. Many people, pilgrims, gathered in the streets of Jerusalem, for the Jewish feast of Passover. The people chanted as Jesus rode in ‘Hosannah to the Son of David’. Clergy robes are red.
