Palm Sunday Service Plans with Children
(a little chaotic… and a lot of cute!)
As you arrive at church Sunday morning, children will receive palm branches to use during a special processional. Early in the service they will be invited to step into the center aisles and join in a joyful walk around the sanctuary, waving their branches during a “Hosanna” praise song. At the end of the song, children will return to their seats and sit with their families.
There will be no children’s church this Sunday
A children’s message will take place at the front of the church just before Pastor Kevin’s message.
