Pope Tawadros II of Alexandria and Patriarch of St Mark Diocese has presided over the Palm Sunday mass at the Monastery of Saint Bishoy in Wadi El Natroun.
The Orthodox Coptic Church said in a statement Sunday that the mass was attended by bishops, priests, monks and other men of Christianity.
Palm Sunday is the Christian moveable feast that falls on the Sunday before Easter. The feast commemorates Christ’s triumphal entry into Jerusalem, an event mentioned in each of the four canonical Gospels. Its name originates from the palm branches waved by the crowd to greet and honor Jesus as he entered the city.
