While this is hardly our usual meeting format for Palm Sunday, isn't it wonderful to know that we are able to at least gather online?
As we begin Holy Week, I invite you to visit our
Calendar page on the St. Hilary website where you can learn about the
online activities planned for these most holy days.
If we take a moment to think back to that first Palm Sunday, without question, it was a time of great hardship and trial for God's people. Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey as the people shouted Hosanna. A donkey was hardly the mode of transportation for a conquering King, yet the people were willing to overlook the situation because they believed their Messiah had finally arrived.
Even in the midst of a crisis of immense proportion in our nation and world, the Lord is still worthy of our praises! The Lord God will never abandon us.
So wherever you may be worshiping from today, rest assured the church of Jesus Christ is NOT confined to a building! The Church is the body of believers—people like you and me—who join together spiritually if not physically to impact a lost and worrying world.
Let's declare the hope we have in Christ on this Palm Sunday 2020!
