Although we dont know the date of the tangible event, Palm Sunday iscelebrated on the Sunday prior to Easter. Also called Passion Sunday, itcommemorates Jesusentering Jerusalem for his anointment as King. (As we know inpresent-day politics, however, wanting to elect a personality doesnt alwaysmean you have the votes to do so. And in this case, instead of becomingKing, Jesus is pronounced to have been crucified.)
The story goes that Jesus was welcomed in to Jerusalem on that portentous day with leaves from date palm trees a usual tree in Jerusalem,which symbolized victory. Palm leaves were laid down similar to a red carpetfor Jesus, roving on a donkey, to pass over, and waved as fans.
Thats because the called Palm Sunday. And if you applaud this day,you know that palm leaves are typically since out during Palm Sundayservices. Some keep the palms, braiding them and utilizing them as sacreddecorations in their homes.
