April 2, 2023 Palm Sunday
Jesus’ earthly journey is nearing its end. His entry into Jerusalem on the Sunday before Passover is an important and powerful image. By fulfilling the image from the prophetic text of Zechariah, he stirs Messianic expectations. His followers who have accompanied him on the path acclaim him as Messiah, although the image of Zechariah is at odds with their experience of Jesus. What we share on Sunday is only the beginning of a busy and important week of worship. Join us on Sunday as we celebrate Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem. You are also invited to join us on Thursday, April 6 and Friday, April 7 as we also remember Maundy Thursday and Good Friday.
