The Palm Sunday 10 a.m. service on March 29, begins on the Trinity Labyrinth at the corner of 2nd Street and Lithia Way. (There is also an 8 am service that begins outside the door ofthe church at the 8 a.m. early service.) We hear the story of Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem and bless palm fronds to carry in procession. Upon entering the church, the focus of the service shifts to the Passion story, which we present in a dramatic reading. But because this is a Sunday, we place the remembrance of Christ’s suffering and death in the larger context of God’s mighty acts of love, concluding the service with the celebration of Holy Communion. It is traditional to keep the palm fronds from this day until Shrove Tuesday the following year, when they are burned for the imposition of ashes on Ash Wednesday. Some will choose to fold their fronds into palm crosses, and instruction for those who need it will be available in the Parish Hall after church. 44 N 2nd St, Ashland, OR, 97520
