Palm Sunday marks the day Jesus made his grand entrance into Jerusalem, not on a majestic horse, but on a humble colt. The crowd waved palm branches and laid them on the road, giving him the royal treatment. It’s Palm Sunday jokes time, and while the original event was deeply meaningful, let’s be honest—riding a donkey as your big arrival move? That definitely leaves room for some playful humor.

Whether you’re waving palm branches in church or just trying to keep your Sunday lighthearted, a few clever jokes can make the day feel even more joyful.
