Palm Sunday 圣枝主日


Today the Catholic church celebrates Palm Sunday.

Jesus, as told in the Bible, riding a donkey into Jerusalem, greeted by crowds with palm leaves...waving and welcoming him.

Palm Sunday marks the beginning of Holy week when Jesus would suffered, died on the cross (The Passion of Christ) and rise again on Easter Sunday.

We brought back the blessed palm from the church and placed them at the main door to welcome the spiritual coming of Jesus into our home and our hearts, and journeying with him at the way of the cross and celebrate his triumph over death on Easter Sunday.


今天我们的教会欢庆圣枝主日。

根据圣经的记载,耶稣骑着驴子,光荣的进入耶路撒冷城,受到拿着棕榈枝的群众夹道欢迎。

从圣枝主日,就开始了教会礼仪的圣周,在这期间,耶稣将受审判,苦难,被钉死在十字架上,三天后复活(复活节),

我们把在教堂祝圣过的棕榈枝带回家,挂在大门上,以示我们在心灵上,欢迎耶稣进入我们的家庭及我们的心中,也陪伴耶稣走过这段苦难之路,在复活节,欢庆他战胜死亡(罪恶)的胜利。
