Palm Sunday Procession and Worship

  • Highlands United Methodist Church 1045 20th Street South Birmingham, AL, 35205 (map)

Join us at Highlands to celebrate Palm Sunday, in remembrance of Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem!

We begin with a Palm Sunday Procession from Brother Bryan Park at 10:15 a.m. All children are encouraged to join the palm procession, and come early to meet the donkey!

Celebrate Palm Sunday at Highlands with joyful songs and waving of palm branches in remembrance of Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem. Through our acts of worship and scripture readings, we embody both the cheering crowd of that joyful day, and the angry mob that will eventually call for Jesus’ crucifixion. The retiring procession on Palm Sunday takes place in silence, in contemplation of all that is to come this Holy Week and in anticipation of the coming Resurrection.

Parents are asked to pick up children from the Atrium at 10:00 a.m. and gather in Brother Bryan Park for the procession.

A nursery is available for children age 4 and younger.

The service will be streamed on Facebook, Vimeo, Youtube, and www.highlandsumc.net.
