Today is also Palm Sunday, celebrated by churches and believers to remember Jesus’ last entry into Jerusalem, preceding Easter week. The branches are the branches and foliage put by the Jewish population on the road to honor the arrival of Jesus mounted on a colt and accompanied by a donkey, recalling a biblical prophecy on the theme of humility. However, Jesus was a great walker as were all humans before very recently the car became a comfort tool which today poses both a problem for the planet and for our good health.

To remedy this, let us walk peacefully, whatever our cause and our ideas which are expressed today by the ballot box.

Let’s start from the entrance to the village of Pommerieux near the sports grounds. Near the pretty chapel of the cemetery where the tombs are traditionally flowered, you will follow the yellow markings with the n° 43 which leads you on low reliefs to the greenway from Laval to Renazé. This day, which is never the same Sunday, was once called flowery Easter because the crosses of branches were flowered.

Look carefully at the cross that adorns the apse of the church of Pommerieux

It dates from the 18th century. The instruments of passion are carved there and illustrate his story to the believers gathered to capture the attention of those, very many, who could not read.
