- Parking on LEFT at the Riverplace Garage, or on RIGHT under the bridge, or on available street parking for two hours.
As much as ongoing Christianity wishes to explain away the adherence to the ecclesiastical calendar, such does not derive from an ordained NT pattern. Rather it traces back to the fancy and corruption of the church set from the first and second century when people, without Scriptural antecedent, began to uphold special religious 'holy-days' with a special service to mark different instances of the life of Christ, as his baptism, his temptations, etc... and later on his ascension and so on. Palm Sunday anchors from the medieval RC 'holy-day' order, which early English Puritans as Carthwright in his attempt to promote industry in England by eliminating the numerous existing religious 'holy-days', termed it as an item picked up from the 'dung hill of popery'
Christ signalised only one remembrance, and this was his death, and this as "often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come"
When the ecclesiastical calendar highlights major events in the life of our Saviour it can only be a good thing to remember and meditate upon them. I applaud FFPC for celebrating the first day of the week that saw the Lord Jesus give Himself as the perfect and only sacrifice for the sins of His people. In the U.K. we hear very little about Palm Sunday. May God bless your day and bring glory to the name of Jesus.
Without overlooking any good intentions behind evangelical practice, events like this signals the reliance of present churches on the ecclesiastical calendar
