Why is red worn by priest in the church on palm Sunday?
Priests wear red to symbolize the death of Jesus, which we remember five days later on Good Friday. Red is the color of blood, so it is very fitting, especially since the account of the Passion of Christ is read at the Gospel. The story of Jesus entering Jerusalem is also read on Palm Sunday, but before Mass begins. The Passion account is read on Palm Sunday because if it is not, then many people will not hear the Passion story, as many do not go to Church on Good Friday. "Rather than having the two Sundays both focus on triumph, Passion Sunday is presented as a time to reflect on the suffering and death of Jesus in a Sunday service of worship." (Link added) Red is also worn on the feast days of apostles and martyrs, Holy Thursday, Good Friday, and Pentecost (to symbolize the Holy Spirit).

What color clothing should be worn to a Lutheran Church on Palm Sunday?
Shortly said: any.Traditionally, black is a colour for grievance, and that--along with repentance--is what Holy Week is about.It really depends on what church you're attending. Generally--that is, I've never heard of a 'colour-clothing-code' for any church visitor--it's up to the visitors to dress in whatever colour of their preference: modesty is the rule (no too-revealing clothes, basically.) You don't have to wear a dress or a suit unless you want to! There's NO need to wear black clothes, not even on Good Friday (although black clothing is widely preferred by many Christians on Good Friday, including myself). As a matter of fact, I've seen a minister in my Evangelical-Lutheran Church dressed in a dark-red jumper on two Good Friday services while she (obviously) wasn't on duty, instead coming as a visitor, so it's up to everyone to decide.However, seeing as it's Lent and the first day of Holy Week, I wouldn't dress too festively either. But, if you turn up not wearing black on either day while most people do, don't feel uncomfortable. And if you want to, go dressed in black both days! It's not an offence to wear or not to wear black on Good Friday or any other day! (Although, I'd refrain from wearing only black on Easter Sunday and Christmas Day due to their nature.) Modesty is the key, then you can wear whatever colour you like--even white (I've seen it worn in church on Good Friday and no one seemed to mind)!To summarize: I'd be very surprised if people took offence as long as you're modestly dressed.The minister and the Altar will probably be dressed in purple on Palm Sunday. The minister may wear a black (or perhaps purple) stole on Good Friday; the Altar will either be dressed in black or completely bare.
