Sunday Worship: Palm Sunday

The Sunday before Easter is commonly called “Palm Sunday.” We will start outside and enter into the building together in a procession of palms. The focus of the lessons are on the suffering of Christ.

Pastor Shane will be preaching from 1 Peter 1:17-21 in our 1 Peter Sermon Series.

The Collect and Lessons for Palm Sunday.
Almighty and everlasting God, who, of thy tender love towards mankind, hast sent thy Son, our Saviour Jesus Christ, to take upon him our flesh and to suffer death upon the cross, that all mankind should follow the example of his great humility: Mercifully grant that we may both follow the example of his patience, and also be made partakers of his resurrection, through the same Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

The Collect for Ash Wednesday (prayed daily through Lent)
Almighty and everlasting God, who hatest nothing that thou hast made, and dost forgive the sins of all those who are penitent: Create and make in us new and contrite hearts, that we, worthily lamenting our sins and acknowledging our wretchedness, may obtain of thee, the God of all mercy, perfect remission and forgiveness, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
