Members of the Church of Redeemer congregation gathered for an English and Spanish bilingual mass for Palm Sunday. The service began with a reenactment of Jesus' entry into Jerusalem with music and sermons. Then members waved palm fronds and led a palm procession around the church before continuing the service in the chapel.
