PALM SUNDAY

My eldest D was christened on Palm Sunday 59 years ago at a church ,St Nicholas. Then when she married, it was another St. Nicholas church many miles away. He has served her well throughout the years along with her DH of course.

Perhaps a bit 'Happy Clappy' for some but my favourite Palm Sunday Hymn is Zion Holy Mountain Holy City.... The line 'I set my face face like flint for you' always makes me amazed that Jesus knew what He was going to and went anyway!
'Went' to Mass at Shrewsbury Cathedral this morning - 37 mins! Shortest ever!

geekesse have you a picture of your palm cross to share with us please?

I have my Easter branches up either side of my fireplace, decorated with chicks, eggs etc.

Here it is, Yogagirl.

Thank you, geekesse.

Our local church which I attend did an online service for Palm Sunday which I watched. Our usual Vicar, some of the congregation singing and reading and our part time Vicar reading the gospel, all from their own houses.

I had given in last years palm crosses to be burnt for Ash Wednesday before all this lockdown began so didn’t have one still at home. I made one from paper to hold and lit a candle on the table beside me to show the presence of Christ, as did our Vicar on the screen. One of the hymns was When I survey the Wonderous Cross

I will do the same for the Holy Week services Thursday-Saturday and the celebration of Easter Day.

How lovely geekesse & thanks for sharing. I'm going to copy if that's OK, I have the same cross in my kitchen, so I'll use that xx

Please, feel free to copy. As far as I know, the cross is free from copyright!

Inspired by geekesse, I've put last year's blessed palm in beside my wee peace lily, overlooking The Last Supper, ready for Holy Thursday.

Sending love ❤️ and prayers ? for those who wish them.

Night night God bless.

Very nice Grannmarie x

Thanks, Yogagirl.

Easter greetings to all.
