The Scripture readings for this Sunday are:
For the procession with palms:
Luke 19: 28-40
During the Mass:
Isaiah 50: 4-7
Psalm 22: 8-9, 17-20, 23-24
Philippians 2: 6-11
Luke 22:14- 23:56
In the course of one service, the mood shifts from one of triumph to utter failure... the humiliating execution of the one his followers were counting on as "Messiah". So begins the week we call Holy, in which we pray and consider the Paschal Mystery... Christ's suffering, death and resurrection, and how the triumphs and failures of our own lives echo this same pattern. As you experience the services of the Triduum (three-days), be aware of what Jesus is teaching us about how to live, to serve one another, to love one another.
