Palm Sunday

Today, Palm Sunday, was a sweet day for the children at our church. The toddlers lined up on the playground (which overlooks the courtyard) and the older children gathered in the courtyard (covered parking area b/c of the rain), all with palm branches in their hands. Then we watched Jesus ride through the courtyard on a donkey. The older children and adults were yelling "Hosanna" and really understood the story and what was happening, but it was a neat experience for all.



May we all take this week to reflect upon the Easter story. Thank you, Lord, for sending your son to die for me. And THANK YOU, Lord, that he rose up from the grave so that we all might live.
