This Sunday is Palm Sunday. In the Christian faith, we use this time to remember and reflect on the sacrifice of one for the redemption of many. Regardless of your own faith or beliefs, each and every one of us is now being asked to make sacrifices that may very well help save the lives of others.
While it is currently unsafe to gather together in churches, temples, and other places of worship across the state, at noon this Sunday, I am calling on all Marylanders to join together at home, or wherever you are, in a moment of prayer or reflection for those we have lost, those who are sick, and the doctors, nurses, clinicians, health care workers and first responders on the front lines around the clock, working to bring about a new dawn in our history.
Together, let us give strength and comfort to one another. Let us pray for each other. Let us pray for the great State of Maryland, for the United States of America, and for all the people around the world.
