Palm Sunday is a major Christian feast that falls on the Sunday before Easter. The feast celebrates Jesus' triumphant entry into Jerusalem, an event mentioned in each of the four canonical Gospels. In many Catholic, Episcopal denominations and the Ethiopian Orthodox Church, worship services on Palm Sunday include a procession of faithfully carrying palms, with palm branches representing the crowd scattered in front of Jesus as he rode into Jerusalem. The difficulty of purchasing palms in unfavourable climates led to their replacement with branches of native plants, including the box, olive, willow and yew. Sundays were often named after these option trees, as in Yew Sunday, or by the common term Branch Sunday. Holy Week 2022 Calendar With Full Dates: From Palm Sunday to Good Friday to Easter; Check Schedule, Traditions and Meaning of All the Days of Christian Passion Week.
