Start Palm Sunday with joy and community! First Presbyterian Church of Evanston will join with other local congregations for an ecumenical Palm Sunday procession around Raymond Square (right across from our church at Chicago & Lake). Together we’ll celebrate with music, wave palms, and walk with a live donkey, remembering Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem.
All are welcome, neighbors, families, and friends!
