~~ Photos of Palm Sunday, 2022, at St. James' Episcopal Church, Taichung ~~
Arriving at St. James' quite early this morning, I noticed the delicate flowers (see the right) in our Coffee-Hour room on the first floor. However, due to the growing number of COVID-19 infections in Taiwan, we had NO coffee hour today! -- I loved those tender and lovely flowers so I'd like to share a picture of them here in the first place.
Then, as you can see, I also want to share some thirty pictures with palm branches in them (see below). -- Well, let's start with a quote from English Wikipedia:
In Christianity, the palm branch is associated with Jesus' Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem, celebrated on Palm Sunday, when the Gospel of John says of the citizens, "they took palm branches and went out to meet Him" (12:13 HCSB). Additionally, the palm has meaning in Christian iconography, representing victory, i.e. the victory of the spirit over the flesh (Revelation 7:9).
