Palm Sunday celebration

Yet another donkey was a part of the Palm Sunday celebration at St Francis of Assisi in Bend, as Pimmy was the center of attraction during the blessing of palms and procession towards the church. The beautiful brown donkey had her 15 minutes of fame three times as she patiently walked back and forth to accompany the people who attended the blessing. That’s 45 minutes of fame! At times Pimmy turned stubborn as she did not like walking on blacktop, but preferred the grass, of which she could also munch a mouthful occasionally. Palm Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week, and now we turn our focus on Holy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter.
