St. Peter

 Gospel Reading: Luke 20:9-20

​

 12The next day the large crowd that had come to the feast heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem.13 So they took branches of palm trees and went out to meet him, crying out, “Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, even the King of Israel!”14And Jesus found a young donkey and sat on it, just as it is written,

​

15“Fear not, daughter of Zion; behold, your king is coming, sitting on a donkey's colt!” 

 

16His disciples did not understand these things at first, but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things had been written about him and had been done to him.17The crowd that had been with him when he called Lazarus out of the tomb and raised him from the dead continued to bear witness.18The reason why the crowd went to meet him was that they heard he had done this sign.19So the Pharisees said to one another,“You see that you are gaining nothing. Look, the world has gone after him.”
