Today is Palm Sunday, and the start of Holy Week for Christ followers. On Palm Sunday we mark the occasion of Jesus Christ's triumphal entry into Jerusalem, before his death by crucifixion (remembered on Good Friday) and his resurrection (celebrated on Easter Sunday).

John 12:13

They took palm branches and went out to meet him, shouting, "Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Blessed is the King of Israel!"

NIV
