International Day for Mine Awareness and Assistance in Mine Action

The International Day for Mine Awareness and Assistance in Mine Action is dedicated to raising awareness about the impact of landmines and the importance of mine action in conflict-affected areas. Events and activities focus on educating communities about the risks associated with landmines, promoting mine clearance efforts, and providing assistance to those affected by explosive remnants of war. The day underscores the humanitarian efforts to create safer environments, facilitate reconstruction, and support the victims of landmines. It serves as a call to action for governments, organizations, and individuals to contribute to global mine action efforts and work towards a world free from the threat of landmines.

Palm Sunday

Palm Sunday is a significant Christian observance that falls on the Sunday before Easter Sunday. It commemorates the triumphant entry of Jesus Christ into Jerusalem, as described in the Bible, when crowds greeted Him by waving palm branches and laying their cloaks on the road to honor Him as a king. This day marks the beginning of Holy Week, a period of reflection and devotion leading up to Easter. Palm Sunday services often include the blessing of palm branches, which are distributed to the congregation, followed by a procession into the church to reenact Jesus' entry into Jerusalem.
