Dear Readers: This week, many Christians around the world observe Palm Sunday, the day that begins Holy Week. In the biblical story, crowds gathered along the road to welcome Jesus Christ as he entered Jerusalem. They waved palm branches and laid them on the path before him, celebrating with hope and joy.
Palm branches were symbols of peace and victory in the ancient world. The people in the crowd believed they were witnessing the arrival of someone who would change everything for the better. For a moment, there was a feeling of unity, excitement and possibility in the air.
