HOSANNA

Today, we begin a series that will lead us up to Easter Sunday. Palm Sunday begins the most significant Holy Week of the liturgical year. 
After 6 weeks journey through Lent, the Holy Week has finally arrived for us to reflect the passion story of Jesus. The readings are about the event that marked the start of Jesus’ life - His triumphal entry into Jerusalem. 
The crowd who was shouting “Hosanna, blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord” would, a week later, be shouting “crucify him.” 
Actually, the crowd wanted Jesus to establish an earthly kingdom. Instead, He had come to establish a spiritual kingdom. What Jesus wanted to welcome into their hearts. For Jesus is a Savior of peace! 
May each of you have a wonderful week!
