Description
Palm making activity using the good news stories and stories of concern from the previous week's newspapers highlighting international, national and local stories of celebration and concern. There follows a reflection on the range of emotions which are echoed in the Holy Week events. We consider and pray through the joys and pains of our world and our lives against the backdrop of Palm Sunday and Holy Week.
I have used this material for all age worship and with adult groups. With the prompt of the newspaper stories I felt that people were more confident in sharing stories and it gave me a real insight into the joys and concerns of the congregations - especially when they shared local issues.
