One Parade, Two Paths | The Rev. Liz Costello | March 29, 2026

Palm Sunday invites us into a single story with two powerful moments: celebration and crucifixion. In this sermon, Mother Liz reflects on how we are not just observers, but participants in both. The same crowd that praises Jesus also calls for his death—and we are placed within that tension.

Rather than condemning us, this truth opens us to something deeper: the unwavering faithfulness of God. Even in our inconsistency, Christ meets us with love that does not turn away. As we enter Holy Week, we are invited to follow in the way of Jesus—the way of humility, courage, and love that remains open to us still.

Where do you see yourself in the story this week—joining the “Hosanna” or the “Crucify”? Or somewhere in between?
