Now, Christians go to Mass on Palm Sunday and receive Palms. They sing the praises of Jesus and thank God for his wonderful gifts. Then they bring the Palms home, usually making them into crosses and hanging them up around your house. But make sure the Palms don't touch the ground. If they do, Christians have to burn them to show respect for a blessed thing.

They also participate in the Divine Liturgy on Palm Sunday morning, as this is the last day before Holy Passion Week begins on the following day.
Fasting from meat, fish and dairy products also continues until the Resurrection Service (Easter Day). In some areas, such as the Greek Islands, it became a local custom to eat fish on Palm Sunday, and this gradually spread to other parts of Greece, although this is regarded as not being theologically correct, as the Church canons (rules) state that wine and oil are permitted on this day, but not fish.
