The Palm Sunday March is the commencement ceremony for the Lexington/ Rockbridge area celebration of Holy Week. Participants will walk to the downtown churches and pray for the pastor and congregations of each parish. Pastors also will offer prayers for the Rockbridge area pastors/churches as well as all of the communities represented. They will continue with the tradition of praying at Nikko’s Restaurant.
