THE PROCESSION WITH PALMSThose who are able are invited to assemble

outside, weather permitting, for the Blessing of the Palms

 P Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.C Hosanna to the Son of David.P The Lord be with you.C And also with you.P Let us pray. Mercifully assist us, O Lord God of our salvation, that we may enter with joy upon the contemplation of those mighty acts whereby you have given us life everlasting; through your Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.C Amen Processional Gospel: Mark 11:1-11Jesus enters Jerusalem 1When they were approaching Jerusalem, at Bethphage and Bethany, near the Mount of Olives, [Jesus] sent two of his disciples 2and said to them, “Go into the village ahead of you, and immediately as you enter it, you will find tied there a colt that has never been ridden; untie it and bring it. 3If anyone says to you, ‘Why are you doing this?’ just say this, ‘The Lord needs it and will send it back here immediately.’ ” 4They went away and found a colt tied near a door, outside in the street. As they were untying it, 5some of the bystanders said to them, “What are you doing, untying the colt?” 6They told them what Jesus had said; and they allowed them to take it. 7Then they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks on it; and he sat on it. 8Many people spread their cloaks on the road, and others spread leafy branches that they had cut in the fields. 9Then those who went ahead and those who followed were shouting,  “Hosanna!  Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord!  10Blessed is the coming kingdom of our ancestor David! Hosanna in the highest heaven!”  11Then he entered Jerusalem and went into the temple; and when he had looked around at everything, as it was already late, he went out to Bethany with the twelve. THANKSGIVINGP The Lord be with you.C And also with you.P Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.C It is right to give him thanks and praise.

We praise and thank you, O God, for the great acts of loveby which you have redeemed us through your Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.On this day he entered the holy city of Jerusalem in triumph,and was acclaimed Son of David and King of kingsby those who scattered their garments and branches of palm in his path.We ask that you bless these palms and those who bear them,and grant that we may ever hail him as our Lord and Kingand follow him with perfect confidence;through the same Jesus Christ, our Lord,who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.Amen

 PROCESSIONLet us go forth in peace,In the name of the Lord. PROCESSIONAL HYMN “All Glory, Laud, and Honor” ELW 344     Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.C Hosanna in the highest. PRAYER OF THE DAYSovereign God, you have established your rule in the human heart through the servanthood of Jesus Christ. By your Spirit, keep us in the joyful procession of those who with their tongues confess Jesus as Lord and with their lives praise him as Savior, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.Amen. PLEASE SIT AS YOU ARE ABLE 

WORD 

First Reading: Isaiah 50:4-9aThe image of the servant of God is one of the notable motifs in the book of Isaiah. Today’s reading describes the mission of the servant, whom early Christians associated with Jesus. Like Jesus, the servant does not strike back at his detractors but trusts in God’s steadfast love.  4The Lord GOD has given me  the tongue of a teacher, that I may know how to sustain  the weary with a word. Morning by morning he wakens—  wakens my ear  to listen as those who are taught. 5The Lord GOD has opened my ear,  and I was not rebellious,  I did not turn backward. 6I gave my back to those who struck me,  and my cheeks to those who pulled out the beard; I did not hide my face  from insult and spitting.

 7The Lord GOD helps me;  therefore I have not been disgraced; therefore I have set my face like flint,  and I know that I shall not be put to shame;  8he who vindicates me is near. Who will contend with me?  Let us stand up together. Who are my adversaries?  Let them confront me.

4

Please follow in procession at a distance from your neighbor and find your seat. Please remain standing.

 9aIt is the Lord GOD who helps me;  who will declare me guilty?  L: The word of the Lord.C: Thanks be to God. Psalm: Psalm 31:9-16Into your hands, O LORD, I commend my spirit. (Ps. 31:5)  9Have mercy on me, O LORD, for I am in trouble;  my eye is consumed with sorrow, and also my throat and my belly. 10For my life is wasted with grief, and my years with sighing;  my strength fails me because of affliction, and my bones are consumed. 11I am the scorn of all my enemies, a disgrace to my neighbors, a dismay to my acquaintances;  when they see me in the street they avoid me. 12Like the dead I am forgotten, out of mind;  I am as useless as a broken pot.  13For I have heard the whispering of the crowd; fear is all around;  they put their heads together against me; they plot to take my life. 14But as for me, I have trusted in you, O LORD.  I have said, “You are my God. 15My times are in your hand;  rescue me from the hand of my enemies, and from those who persecute me. 16Let your face shine upon your servant;  save me in your steadfast love.”  PLEASE STAND AS YOU ARE ABLE * GOSPEL ACCLAMATION—(SPOKEN)God's people, see him coming:

your own eternal king!Palm branches strew before him!Spread garments! Shout and sing!God's promise will not fail you!

No more shall doubt assail you!  THE HOLY GOSPELThe Holy Gospel according to St. Luke, the 19th chapter.Glory to you, O Lord! Gospel: Luke 19:28-4028After he had said this, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.29When he had come near Bethphage and Bethany, at the place called the Mount of Olives, he sent two of the disciples, 30saying, "Go into the village ahead of you, and as you enter it you will find tied there a colt that has never been ridden. Untie it and bring it here. 31If anyone asks you, 'Why are you untying it?' just say this, 'The Lord needs it.'" 32So those who were sent departed and found it as he had told them. 33As they were untying the colt, its owners asked them, "Why are you untying the colt?" 34They said, "The Lord needs it." 35Then they brought it to Jesus; and after throwing their cloaks on the colt, they set Jesus on it. 36As he rode along, people kept spreading their cloaks on the road. 37As he was now approaching the path down from the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to praise God joyfully with a loud voice for all the deeds of power that they had seen, 38saying, "Blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord!

5

 Peace in heaven, and glory in the highest heaven!"39Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to him, "Teacher, order your disciples to stop." 40He answered, "I tell you, if these were silent, the stones would shout out."  The Gospel of the Lord!Praise to you, O Christ! PLEASE SIT AS YOU ARE ABLE SERMON Rev. Laura Stephenson  HYMN OF THE DAY “Hosanna, Loud Hosanna” BH 130 PLEASE STAND AS YOU ARE ABLE APOSTLES’ CREED Living together in trust and hope, we confess our faith. 

I believe in God, the Father almighty,creator of heaven and earth.

I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,born of the virgin Mary,suffered under Pontius Pilate,was crucified, died, and was buried;he descended to the dead.On the third day he rose again;he ascended into heaven,he is seated at the right hand of the Father,and he will come again to judge the living and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit,the holy catholic Church,the communion of saints,the forgiveness of sins,the resurrection of the body,and the life everlasting. Amen 

PRAYERS OF INTERCESSION Relying on the promises of God, we pray boldly for the church, the world, and all in need.

A brief silence.

In Jesus you came among us as a suffering servant. Give your church humility. Redeem your people from pride and the certainty that we always know your will. Heal us and empower us to confess Christ crucified. Hear us, O God.Your mercy is great.In creation, life springs from death. Redeem your creation awaiting resurrection: restore lost habitats and endangered species. Create new possibilities for areas affected by climate change, grant relief from natural disasters, and nurture new growth. Hear us, O God.Your mercy is great.Jesus was handed over to the powers of this world. In all nations, instruct the powerful, that they would not exploit their power but maintain justice. Sustain soldiers, and guide those who command them, that they serve those in greatest need. Hear us, O God.

Your mercy is great.On the cross Jesus joined all who feel forsaken. Abide with those who are condemned to death. Defend those who are falsely accused.
