Here
are words with which to send your congregation into Holy Week. They were

Sending Words
And
now we lay down the palm branches.
And
with them we lay down our belief
that
there is another way for you to be God.
As
the last echo of the final alleluia fades,
so
does our hope that this journey can end
in
any other way.
The
week stretches ahead
glory-less
and
pain-full
Whether
we walk with all faith or none
we
look towards the cross,
knowing
it is both the most human
and
most divine
of
all journeys
travel
the road with courage,
with
love,
and
with the uneasy peace that is the gift of faith
into
this holiest of weeks.
Amen.
