Responsive Reading:
Leader: Today, we join the disciples in declaring Jesus, riding on a donkey, is our Savior, Redeemer and King. The One who will bring peace and salvation for us all.
People: Open the gates of peace, that we may come worship God!
Leader: We join with the bystanders who questioned and wondered who this Jesus really is, who feared the consequences of angering the people of power.
People: The truth will prevail, and the goodness of the Lord will come forward.
Leader: The journey through Holy Week brings us face-to-face with stark reality of sin and God's faithfulness to save us.
All: You are the Savior of the world, our prayers, presence and promise before you we present! To your glory, Amen!
