Theme - Palm/Passion Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week, the last days of Jesus' life.  It begins on a high note with Jesus being proclaimed as king as he rides into Jerusalem on a donkey and concludes with Roman soldiers mocking him as king.  Traditionally, it's on this Sunday, that the church hears the longest scripture reading of the year, the passion narrative from one of the gospels.
