Palm Sunday: Leola Hill, left, lead usher at St. Paul’s Baptist Church Belt Boulevard campus in South Side, hands Edna Austin a palm at the 10 a.m. worship service April 14 on Palm Sunday. The Christian feast day, held the Sunday before Easter, commemorates Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem just days before his crucifixion and resurrection. According to the Gospels, Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey, where people celebrating him as the son of God laid palm fronds, small branches and clothing in his path. (Ava Reaves)
