2. Welcome to St. Peter! Lent began with an almost equal focus on the sinner and the Savior. But increasingly and now in Holy Week the focus is on Christ. The readings, hymns and prayers want us to understand once and for all who it really is who has come to save us, so that with all confidence we may do as the Prayer of the Day suggests: follow him from Holy Week to Easter, from earth to heaven. May God bless our Palm Sunday worship!

3. Welcome to St. Peter! There are friendship registers at the end of each row. Please take a moment to give us your information so that we have a record of your time with us today. Thank you!
