The congregation participates as part of the initial procession, beginning in the south parking lot and processing through the Garth and into the Sanctuary, recalling Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem. In place of our normal lectionary readings and Gospel procession, the congregation participates in the reenactment of Jesus’ betrayal, trials and crucifixion through a corporate reading of selected portions of the Gospel of Mark. There are no Sunday school classes for children or adults on Palm Sunday.

For the kids

Toddlers and preschoolers are invited to take part in the processional with their families and can be dropped off at class just before entering the sanctuary. All children are invited to visit the donkey with their parents in the Garth between services.
