Ahead of Palm Sunday, General Brian Peddle thanks 'essential' COVID-19 responders

AHEAD of Palm Sunday, General Brian Peddle, international leader of The Salvation Army, has reflected on the 'new normal' and thanked 'essential people' who continue to serve their communities during the coronavirus pandemic. He also reflects on the familiar Bible passage in Luke 19, and asks that Salvationists and friends would 'cry "Hosanna" – God save us!' in these days.

The General encourages the sharing of this video message, online and in corps (churches) and other Salvation Army centres. It can be viewed on his Facebook Page and downloaded from Vimeo at the link below.
