Philippines Palm Sunday
A lay minister is blessing parishioners' palm fronds, known locally as 'palaspas', during a celebration of Palm Sunday at the Franciscan-run Minor Basilica of San Pedro Bautista in Quezon City, northeast of Manila, Philippines, on March 24, 2024. Often referred to as Palm Sunday of the Lord's Passion, or Passion Sunday, Palm Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week, a solemn period for Catholics and other Christian denominations observing the lead-up to the crucifixion of Jesus Christ on Good Friday and his resurrection on Easter Sunday.
