On Palm Sunday, the Sunday before Easter, we take home blessed palm fronds in commemoration of Jesus’s triumphal entry into Jerusalem.
“And on the next day, a great multitude that was to come to the festival day, when they had heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried: Hosanna, blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord, the king of Israel.” John 12:12-13
