Palm Sunday, 2026

#2026-0329

Today is the Sunday of the Passion, also known as Palm Sunday.

In previous years, Jean and I celebrated this special day at St. James' Church in Taichung. However, during our extended stay in Hualien, we celebrated it this year at St. Luke's Church—the only Episcopal church in eastern Taiwan.

Following tradition, we joined the congregation of St. Luke’s in the Liturgy of the Palms and the procession through the community. After returning to the chapel, we continued with the Liturgy of the Word. Everything felt familiar to Jean and me, though the change in location brought a somewhat new feeling.

I thank our Lord Jesus Christ for this Palm Sunday. I am also grateful to the Rev. Minglong Wu and others for leading the special service. In addition, I deeply appreciate the Rev. Mengrong Guo (郭夢蓉會吏) for her wonderful sermon this morning, which touched my heart in a quiet and unexpected way.
