As you know today is Palm Sunday.

The time of year were we celebrate the Lords triumphant entry into Jerusalem. On a donkey while people waving palm branches shouted "Hossana!" ( Save us now) Sorry for the obivious history review.

And since its Palm Sunday that means Easter is only a week away. ( so excited, Since Easter is my favorite holiday)

So I just wanted to Say to everybody here that I wish you guys all a blessed
Palm Sunday.

The only thing I don't like about Palm Sunday is that every year in Catholic Masses the assembled have to reenact Jesus's crucifixion by chanting "Crucify him!" at the appropriate times.

They don't at mine. They just read from the bible about it and have a group that sings.

RL - I visited my local Catholic church last year for Palm Sunday and was really impressed by the reinactment they did. Very dynamic. This year, went again and no reinactment. o.o;; The priest and everyone seemed kinda tired and not really with it. I was sorta disappointed. u.u;;

Anyone find any creative uses for the palms? I know some people make crosses out of them. I gave mine to my sugar glider and he loves 'em.

Hee, hee, now he's a holy glider!
Anyway, I often hang mine over my door. Sort of my way of asking God to bless the people who go through it.
