-'''Palm Sunday''', also called the '''Triumphal Entry''', is one of the [[Great Feasts]] of the [[Orthodox Church]], celebrated on the [[Sunday]] before [[Pascha]]. On this day the Church celebrates the entry of Jesus into Jerusalem in the days before the Jewish Passover.

If they were asked, they should say that this was God's will.  When the people knew that the donkey was for Jesus, they did not prevent his students. They gave Him the donkey, and He solemnly entered Jerusalem. The news of the resurrection of Lazarus already got ahead and thousands of people went to Bethany to meet him.

-The Orthodox celebrate this day with joy, but with the realization that very sad events are soon to come.  Orthodox peoples who live in areas without palms, including the [[Church of Russia|Russian Orthodox]], use pussy willow branches rather than palms in the celebration of this event.  Some churches give small crosses made of palms at the end of the service and are then kept in the home icon corner.
+The Orthodox celebrate this day with joy, but with the realization that very sad events are soon to come.  Orthodox peoples who live in areas without palms, including the [[Church of Russia|Russian Orthodox]], use pussy willow branches rather than palms in the celebration of this event. Therefore in Russian Church this feast and is called Вербное (Pussy Willow) Воскресенье (Sunday). Some churches give small crosses made of palms at the end of the service and are then kept in the home icon corner.
 Fasting is modified because of the triumphant nature of Palm Sunday, and fish is permitted.  Fried cod with garlic sauce and fried vegetables is a traditional dish, but any fish may be served.
