Bishop Robert Brennan, Bishop of the Diocese of Brooklyn, will begin Holy Week with a solemn Palm Sunday procession in Spanish beginning at 12:30 p.m. on Sunday, April 13, 2025, at Grand Army Plaza in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn.
After an opening prayer and blessing, the faithful will walk with blessed palms down Vanderbilt Avenue, turning onto Pacific Street, arriving at the Co-Cathedral of St. Joseph, located at 856 Pacific Street. Following the procession, Bishop Brennan will celebrate the 1:30 p.m. Spanish Mass at the Co-Cathedral of St. Joseph.
Palm Sunday commemorates the triumphant entrance of Jesus into Jerusalem, where those who greeted Jesus waved palms and set them on the ground along His path. Palms are recognized as a symbol of victory and peace.
Members of the media are invited to attend.
The Palm Sunday Procession will be aired live on the Brooklyn Diocesan Cable Channel,
NET-TV, available on Channel 97 (Spectrum), Channel 30 (Optimum), and Channel 548 (Fios).
