PASSION (PALM) SUNDAY
M AR C H 20, 2016
DEAR PARISHIONERS and VISITORS:
Prayer for Holy Week
Holy week is the week which precedes the great feast of the
resurrection of Jesus on Easter Sunday. The Canadian Bishops
write:” during Holy W eek the church celebrates the m ysteries of
salvation accom plished by Christ in the last days of his life on
earth, beginning with his entrance as m essiah into Jerusalem .”
Every Mass on Passion Sunday begins with the blessings of
the palm s and the gospel of Jesus entering Jerusalem . Later in
Mass the story of the passion of the Lord is read.
Monday, Tuesday and W ednesday of Holy W eek are days that
bring us the description of the growing opposition against Jesus.
He desires peace and unity and is willing to pay the price to bring
about reconciliation. These three days present opportunities for us
to focus on the three virtues of faith, hope and love.
Holy Thursday has only the Mass of the Last Supper in which
we celebrate the sacram ent of the Priesthood and the sacram ent
of the Holy Eucharist.
Good Friday has no Mass – rather there is the solem n
celebration of the Passion of the Lord. G ood Friday is a day of
universal fast and abstinence for Catholics. Fasting m eans for
people between 18 and 59 that you have only one full m eal, two
sm aller m eals and no snacks in between. Abstinence m eans that
for people over 14 you don’t eat m eat. The intention of fasting and
abstinence is to be closer to Jesus in His ways of sacrifice out of
love for sinners.
Holy Saturday only has one Mass – the Easter vigil. At this
Mass we have readings that cover salvation history and the special
baptism and profession of faith of those who wish to join our faith
com m unity.
Easter Sunday brings us the solem n celebration of the
Resurrection of the Lord – God’s love is stronger than sin, fear and
death itself!
Try to take in as m any of these liturgies as possible in Holy
W eek – in them you’ll find the answer to all your joys, sorrows
passions and pains, thanks to God’s loving m ercy brought to us in
Jesus Christ.
Fr. Galvon

Jesus my Lord,
let me strengthen my courage
by taking on the courage of all those
people who have been "centurions" for me.
Many have faced disasters
and hard times with great constancy.
The upper hand of evil
never turned them against you.
They kept going.
Let me be like them, Lord.
No matter what the cross,
let me never stop declaring you to be
"truly” the Son of God,
the source of my hope, the reason why I will
never quit on life.
Amen.

Dios mío, Dios mío, ¿
Por qué me has abandonado ?
Jesús entra en Jerusalén m ontado en un burro, com o
la gente hum ilde, no a caballo com o los príncipes y
conquistadores. En lo interno de esta historia de am or
se m ueven una m ultitud de personajes con
com portam ientos de varios tipos, que parecen anticipar
los acontecim ientos de aquellos que a lo largo de los
siglos se encontrarán con Jesús. La Pasión del Selor es
un Víacrucis .
En la oración del huerto de Getsem aní Jesús, quien
acostum braba a retirarse a orar, no quiere estar a
solas, quiere am igos y desea una com pañía m ás íntim a
que la de los doce. En esta oración se trata de aceptar,
a pesar del dolor que im plica, el sacrificio de su propia
vida.
La Palabra en tu vida
Iniciam os la Sem ana Mayor, tiem po en que

salvación. ¡ Aprovechem os la oportunidad ! Jesús, que
no te dejem os solo en tu dolor, que cada uno de
nosotros seam os am igos tuyos y te acom pañem os.

Stewardship Reflection
In the prelude to today’s great Passion Narrative, Saint Paul
rem inds us that we find our hope in the “em ptiness” and
hum ility” of Christ Jesus; a life that led to the cross, but through
the cross, to glory and exaltation. The way is not easy. Good
stewards know that it requires a willingness to lay aside all
rights of personal privilege; em ptying ourselves in the service
of others; em bracing values different from the values of the
world. It requires an understanding that to be “in Christ” m eans
to be a servant because Christ cam e into the world, not as Lord
but as servant. W hat crosses are we willing to carry? W hat
worldly values are we willing to forego in order to share Christ’s
glory?
