Service of WorshipPalm Sunday
April 17, 2011Eleven o’clock in the morning
Duke universityChapel
Our service begins with a procession of the palms to recall the triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem. The palms we wave reflect the fragility of the celebration—since a mere five days later, the crowd’s adulation turns to hatred. In Philippians, we read Paul’s account of Jesus’ ministry. Paul sums up the humiliation and the glory of Jesus that we prepare to honor this week. The gospel narrative is a retelling of the passion of Christ, drawing primarily from the gospel of Matthew.
Keeping the heart of the University listening to the heart of God
“The Entry into Jerusalem,” by the Limbourg Brothers, before 1416.
