Palm Sunday Parade

March 24 • 9:45am • Back of Sanctuary

All kids and adults that wish to process through the Sanctuary with palm branches should meet in the Narthex/back of Sanctuary at 9:45am to get palms and be ready. If you're able to be a "processing adult" on this day, let Mayme Simms know at mayme@haumc.org. Kids will stay in service after we process until the Children's Message and then we'll head to Sunday School.

Get a Holy Week Bag for Your Child This Sunday!

March 24

Holy Week Bags will be ready and handed out at the end of Sunday School. We hope these will be a great resource for our families to use at home during Holy Week. 

If you’re unable to be at Hennepin on Palm Sunday, but would like a bag delivered to your house to use throughout the week, email Mayme (mayme@haumc.org) and she’ll make sure one gets to you! 

A Message from The Disability Action Team... 

March 21 is World Down Syndrome Awareness Day. Let's raise awareness! You are invited to WEAR your most FUN SOCKS to church this Sunday, March 24! The idea is to start a conversation, so when people ask you about your socks you can tell them, “I’m wearing them to raise awareness of Down Syndrome!” Learn about Down Syndrom below, and speak up with us to end the stereotypes.
