The statistics of the collected donations are encouraging.

An Inspiring Message about Palm Sunday - The Reformed Journal ... (Reformed Journal)

Love, humility, sacrifice. Got it. It's been a rough couple weeks, though. Shouldn't we mention something about mass shootings and Trump's indictment? In recent ...

However, despite the tragedy and irony of Palm Sunday, it remains a powerful symbol of hope and redemption for Christians around the world. It is a reminder that even in the face of injustice, suffering, and death, there is always the possibility of transformation and renewal. The donkey is often seen as a symbol of humility and service, and Jesus’ choice to ride a donkey rather than a horse or a chariot was a deliberate act of humility and nonviolence. In a world that often values power and aggression, the example of Jesus’ humility and compassion serves as a powerful reminder of the transformative power of love and service. Yet at the same time, it is also a moment of great tragedy, as Jesus knows that his arrival in Jerusalem will ultimately lead to his arrest, trial, and execution. Somehow, I feel deeply—or should I say powerfully–inspired and prepared for a meaningful Palm Sunday full of vaguely pleasant feelings about peace and love. Another challenge to reflect on is the issue of book banning in schools, which has become a growing concern in many countries. In addition to other issues, we are also grappling with the consequences of climate change, which threatens to have catastrophic effects on our planet and our way of life. It is a day that is celebrated with great joy and enthusiasm all over the world, marking the triumphant entry of Jesus into Jerusalem. The celebration of Palm Sunday also coincides with recent developments in politics, including the indictment of former President Donald Trump. It is a reminder that true leadership requires a willingness to put the needs of others before one’s own interests and to work towards the greater good. Palm Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week, which is the most important time in the Christian calendar.

Faith & Values: As Palm Sunday approaches, enjoy the ride of life (The Morning Call)

Palm Sunday commemorates Jesus' walking into Jerusalem while the people cheered and waved him on. It marks the start of Holy Week.

We’d be fools to ignore the impact of this man Jesus on the world. Dear friend, whatever your faith tradition or lack of one, we are all on the ride of our lifetime. He wasn’t asking to be treated like a king, instead he was riding into town on the back of a lowly donkey. It is the day when masses of people show their support, their love. Palm Sunday is the day we witness Jesus hearing the cheers of an excited crowd. Interestingly, this event was prophesied some 400 years prior in the book of Zechariah.

What's the meaning of Palm Sunday? Here's what you need to know. (USA TODAY)

Palm Sunday is a nod to Easter Sunday, said Mark Jobe, president of the Moody Bible Institute. It's a celebration of Jesus dying and rising again.

"It is a time of celebration," she said. "Traditionally, some of the branches are saved," she said. They are saved and when you get to Ash Wednesday, which is the beginning of Lent, the ashes come from those burnt palm branches." "The first chapter in Genesis talks about how God created the world," she told USA TODAY. "It wasn't something unique to Jesus," he told USA TODAY. The ceremony wasn't introduced to Western Christianity until about the 9th century.

“Are you still sleeping and taking your rest?” He urged them to “watch and pray” so they would “not undergo the test”. Having thus established Jesus in solidarity with sinners, God “did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all’, so that we might be ‘reconciled to God by the death of his Son’” (CCC 603; 2572). It brings to mind the quote uttered by Pope Francis in his first papal homily: “He who does not pray to the Lord prays to the Devil.” It is also true that those who refuse to walk with the Lord will walk with the Devil. “So you could not keep watch with me for one hour?” Jesus asked the disciples as they drifted off to sleep in the garden. “What are you willing to give me if I hand him over to you?” Judas finally realized he could not shape Jesus into his own image, and so decided he would rather do away with Jesus altogether. Re-reading today’s Gospel, I was drawn to certain questions asked by three people: Judas as he betrays, Jesus as he prays, Pilate as he strategizes, and Jesus again as he gives up his spirit on the Cross.

The sole sources of light are two: Jesus and his Father in heaven, illustrated by the light in the sky that illuminates the rock next to which he is praying. But let us remember the Holy Spirit is the Spirit of the Father and the Son, so he gave up “his Spirit” … It’s not that his Father’s justice is such that he “demands his pound of flesh.” It is that man, choosing to do evil, chooses to create a situation in God’s relationship with man in which God can neither just acquiesce nor ignore. Rockefeller, who gifted them to the neo-Gothic [Riverside Church](https://www.trcnyc.org/arts/) in Manhattan (at Riverside Drive and West 120th Street). Pentecost is the definitive gift of the Holy Spirit. The Coming of the Holy Spirit. Jesus has already been pointing to its conquest: two weeks ago, the Gospel spoke of the raising of Lazarus. In Jeremiah 19:1-15, God command Jeremiah to buy a potter’s jar and go into the Hinnom Valley in Jerusalem and smash it to symbolize the coming doom upon Israel from the hands of the Babylonians because of Israel’s infidelities. Thirty pieces of silver was not a large sum: it was the price of a slave (Exodus 21:32). Since the Synoptics’ account of Jesus’ passion and death agree so much, it might be interesting to note the details that are unique to Matthew, the author of today’s Gospel. (It would be a good exercise today or in the first days of Holy Week to read Mark and Luke’s accounts). Matthew’s is the only Gospel that speaks of Judas’ fate.
