Beginning with Palm Sunday, the universal Church will begin Holy Week ending with Holy Saturday. This week, the faithful are called to enter into the events of Jesus' profound journey of his suffering, sacrifice, and victory over death: Jesus’ triumphant entry into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, the institution of the Eucharist (the Last Supper on Holy Thursday), and the Passion of Jesus on Good Friday - signs of his infinite love and mercy for all of humanity.
Let us prayerfully journey through this week with the joyful hope of the resurrection at Easter, the “feast of feasts” (CCC 1169)
"If we are to accompany Christ in his glory at the end of Holy Week, we must first enter into his holocaust and be truly united to him, as he lives and dies on Calvary." (St Josemaria)
