In our worship at Lebanon Presbyterian Church, we still proclaim the foundation of our faith that Christ died, Christ has risen and we await the return of Christ for those Believers. We unite to worship God and share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with each other, as well as our community. We call on the Holy Spirit, as we support each other in prayer and spiritual growth. We worship, study, and fellowship with joy, forgiveness, and faithfulness as we seek to live out our love of God and our neighbor. Please come and join us!

Palm Sunday Celebration

Lebanon Presbyterian Church

March 27, 2021

Comments

Palm Sunday. The final Sunday of Lent, the beginning of Holy Week, and commemoration of the triumphant arrival of Christ in Jerusalem, days before he was crucified.

In the Gospels, Jesus entered Jerusalem riding a young donkey, as the townspeople threw palms or small branches, in front of him as a sign of respect.

Palm branches were a widely recognized symbol of peace and victory, and the use of a donkey instead of a horse is highly symbolic, as it represents the humble arrival of someone in peace, as opposed to arriving on a steed in war.

A week later, Christ would rise from the dead on the first Easter.

You are invited to join us to celebrate Palm Sunday at LPC, as John DiYorio leads our Worship Service at 11:00 am. All are welcome here.
