We’re starting off Holy Week in a unique way with a Palm Sunday Hike! We’ll take a short walk together in the hills of Wind Wolves Preserve, remembering Jesus’ triumphal entry from the Mount of Olives into Jerusalem. He came riding on a donkey, welcomed by people waving palm branches and shouting Hosanna—save now!

We’ll have palm branches for the kids to carry (If you have some around your property bring some to share), and along the way, we’ll pause a few times to reflect, pray, and remember the kind of King Jesus is. It’ll be simple, meaningful, and a good way to begin Holy Week together.

Details:

10:00 AM — We’ll head out shortly after, so please plan to arrive on time.
