Palm Sunday Service

  • Cathedral Church of St John the Divine 1047 Amsterdam Avenue New York, NY, 10025 United States (map)

The last week of the 40-day season of Lent, Holy Week, begins with Passion Sunday, commonly called Palm Sunday. The liturgy centers on the proclamation of the record of Jesus' betrayal, trial, suffering, death, and burial.

The liturgy of Passion Sunday begins with a remembrance of Jesus’ entrance into Jerusalem before his crucifixion. It includes the blessing of palm branches, which members of the assembly then carry in procession and take home to use as objects of devotion.
