“To follow Jesus,​ we must make a conscious ⁢choice to put our relationship with Him above everything else,” Wahlberg highlights. “When we deny ourselves the things that⁣ keep us from God, we’re better able to see the crosses God is calling us to carry.”

Palm Sunday,‍ observed ‍a week before Easter, marks⁢ the commencement of the holiest ‍week in Christianity, symbolizing‍ the start of the final chapter in the life of Jesus Christ.

As Palm Sunday ‍ushers in the start of the Holy Week, leading up to Easter Sunday, Christians worldwide engage ‍in introspection and preparation through the observance of Lent.

The Lenten period, commencing on ⁣Ash Wednesday and culminating just before Good Friday, involves fasting, prayer, and almsgiving as a spiritual discipline and preparation for the joyous celebration of Easter.

Traditionally, Easter falls on the first Sunday after the first full moon following the vernal equinox, a date ‍that ‍varies each year, symbolizing new beginnings and spiritual rebirth.
