The Liturgy of the Palms
Celebrant: Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord.
People: Peace in heaven and glory in the highest.
Celebrant: Let us pray.
Assist us mercifully with your help, O Lord God of our salvation, that we may
enter with joy upon the contemplation of those mighty acts, whereby you have
given us life and immortality; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Gospel Mark 11:1-11
Celebrant: The Lord be with you.
People: And also with you. Celebrant: Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
People: It is right to give him thanks and praise.
Collect
It is right to praise you, Almighty God, for he acts of love by which you have
redeemed us through your Son Jesus Christ our Lord. On this day he entered
the holy city of Jerusalem in triumph, and was proclaimed as King of kings by those who spread their garments and branches of palm along his way. Let these
branches be for us signs of his victory, and grant that we who bear them in his
name may ever hail him as our King, and follow him in the way that leads to
eternal life, who lives and reigns in glory with you and the Holy Spirit, now
and for ever. Amen.
Celebrant: Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.
People: Hosanna in the highest.
Celebrant: Let us go forth in peace.
People: In the name of Christ. Amen.
The bagpiper leads the palm procession.
Collect at church doors
Let us pray: Almighty God, whose most dear Son went not up to joy but first be suffered pain, and entered not into glory before he was crucified: Mercifully
grant that we, walking in the way of the cross, may find it none other than the
way of life and peace; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen
Processional Hymn#154 All glory, laud, and honor

The Salutation and Collect of the Day: ALMIGHTY AND EVERLIVING
GOD, us your tender love for the human race you sent your Son our Savior
Jesus Christ to take upon him our nature, and to suffer death upon the cross,
giving us the example of his great humility: Mercifully grant that we may walk
in the way of his suffering, and also share in his resurrection; through Jesus
Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God,
for ever and ever. Amen.

TURNING FROM, TURNING TO What will it take to turn us around today, to turn us from our self-centered, self-serving concerns and interests to the way of self-giving love modeled by Christ Jesus? We know the biblical stories of those who
turned their lives around 180 degrees to serve the purpose of God: Moses hearing the voice of God coming from the burning bush (Ex.3:1-6), Jonah rescued from drowning after he tried to avoid his call to Nineveh (Jonah 1:3-6, 15—2:10), Paul struck blind on the way to Damascus (Acts 9:3-19), for example. Notice all
those experiences took place out of doors; they were subject to the vagaries of nature, vulnerable, without protection from the elements. Perhaps we today are too insulated from God‟s handiwork in creation to recognize the Divine at work in our lives, too set in our forward-looking ways even to consider turning around to allow God to change our focus, our direction. The concept of turning brings to mind the Shaker hymn “Simple Gifts:” „Tis a gift to be simple, „tis a gift to be free, „Tis a gift to come down where we ought to be, And when we find ourselves in the place just right, „Twill be in the valley of love and delight. When true simplicity is gained, To bow and to bend we shan‟t be ashamed, To turn, turn will be our delight, “Til by turning, turning, we come round right. “Right” on the path to Easter, leaving our palms behind, following Jesus through Gethsemane, Golgotha, and the empty tomb, we will come to the valley of love and delight of Christ‟s resurrected Presence.
