Palm Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week in the Catholic Church, commemorating Jesus' triumphant entry into Jerusalem. As people laid palm branches before Him, they hailed Him as the King, fulfilling ancient prophecy. This day invites Catholics to reflect on both the joy of Jesus’ arrival and the coming suffering of His Passion. Palm Sunday sets the tone for the journey through the events of Holy Week, leading up to the celebration of Easter. It is a time to embrace Jesus' humility, love, and sacrifice.
