Palm Sunday! They took palm branches and went out to meet him, shouting, «Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Blessed is the King of Israel!» Dear brothers and sisters, let us all glorify and praise our Lord and Savior as well, and let us open our ourselves today in our best humility, to let Christ, Who enters Jerusalem, also, enter the hearts of each and every one of us.

For 2000 years in the Orthodox Church, the tradition has been for women and girls to veil their heads during worship, whether at church for the liturgy, or at home for family prayer time. Icons in the Orthodox Church are a visual guide to the Faith, a sort of “picturebook” of Christianity. The ideas of obedience and humility are foreign in today's world, but they are an essential part of the way of life for Orthodox Christians.
