The Glorious Entry of the Saviour of the World, Jesus Christ, into Jerusalem Among all the holy days of Christianity, Palm Sunday holds a special place; a day that not only commemorates a historical event, but also carries a clear message of hope for all nations that live under the pressure of pain, war, oppression, and despair. For us Afghans, who have faced the bitterness of war, instability, poverty, and continuous suffering for many years, this day can shine like a lamp in the darkness and give us hope for a better future
Nowruz, this ancient and precious heritage of our culture, returns each year once again to our homes and hearts; a tradition that has been passed down to us from our ancestors for centuries and still lives on in the spirit of our culture. Some of us celebrate by enjoying haft mewa (seven fruits), some by wearing new clothes, others by going out into nature. Through visits, gatherings, and participation in festivities and fairs, we strive to shake off the dust of winter from our bodies and souls, and welcome a new year with hope and joy.
For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors, but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect.
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you.I do not give to you as the world gives Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
