Jesus wants to be my friend forever (2)

We celebrate our friend, Jesus.  Palm Sunday • Matthew 21:1-11, 15-16  This is a story of Palm Sunday, which happened in Jerusalem. On that day when lots of people were around, someone shouted “Jesus is coming!” Everyone got excited because they knew that Jesus was a good man and a friend to everyone. Jesus came riding on a donkey and all the people waved palm leaves to welcome him. They shouted “Hosanna! Hosanna! Yay Jesus!”.
