PALASPAS, PALM






Linggo ng Palaspas, Palm Sunday, celebrates Jesus Christ's entry to Jerusalem for the Jewish festival of Passover, with crowds of people waving palm branches to welcome him. The raising of Lazarus from the dead performed by Jesus gained him popularity in Jerusalem where he was to fulfill the words in the Scriptures on His final days.

This too, has been annually celebrated in all churches in the country. Photos by Erwin Penafiel taken of the Palm Sunday event in Boac with Most Rev. Bishop Reynaldo Evangelista leading the celebration.
