Palm Sunday and the Passion of the Lord

Palm Sunday brings us a day that begins triumphant with the glory that was Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem, but the mood quickly sombers as the Church takes a brief peek at the Passion of the Lord; a quick foretaste of the sadness of Good Friday that is to come.

Palm Sunday masses at Sacred Heart follow the usual Sunday schedule:

  • Saturday – 4:30pm
  • Sunday – 8:00am & 10:30am

Palm branches will be distributed at all Masses. Won’t you join us?
