This service embodies the sharp contrasts of Holy Week. With the Palms we experience the joyous demonstration of loyalty to Jesus as he enters Jerusalem,
Matthew 21?:9 And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.?
In the Proclamation and Response we confront and respond to the story of Jesus' passion. There is no triumph without suffering, no crown without a cross. Because so much of significance is in this service, and because this day and all of Holy Week are preliminary to the supreme joy of Easter, this day is impoprtant in our soon to end of our journey we started Ash Wednesday the the season of Lent..
