Palm Sunday – March 28, 2021

March 31, 2021

Today during our service on Zoom we will have Palm parade. You can make a palm in a couple of minutes (see the instruction video here), or find some ferns or other green plants, and a scarf, paper or something else to wave.

Also on Zoom we will be watching a Palm Pageant, shared by Rosedale United Church, with children and youth from our two congregations.

On YouTube, our worship service will include scripture, reflection, prayer, and music including Hosanna-filled hymns and a solo of the spiritual “I Want Jesus to Walk With Me.” We end our service today with silence as we move into Holy Week.

Our Palm Sunday Stories and Crafts program can be watched at 9:55am on Zoom, or any time on YouTube.
