Directions for folding a palm frond into the shape of a cross. If you lack a palm, you can use a strip of paper, with a cut stretching up the middle so you can make the paper longer. This is a traditional christian craft commemorating that about a week after He was paraded into Jerusalem surrounded by fans waving palms, Jesus was executed on a cross, thus paying for the sins of the world. 3 days later, at Easter, He would rise from the dead, setting those who believe in Him free from sin and death.
