Matthew 21: 1-11
Isaiah 50: 4-7
Psalm 22: 8-9, 17-20, 23-24
Philippians 2: 6-11
Matthew 26: 14 - 27: 66
The Scripture today is rich in vibrant images:
palms waving as the crowds cheer Jesus, humility, an intimate Passover Meal, betrayal, denial and desertion, a kiss, a sword, silence, "Hail, King of the Jews!", crucifixion, darkness, curtain torn, entombment.
This week, as we continue our preparations for the Easter Sacraments, walk with eyes and ears open to the many images of the Triduum, consider how Jesus' story affects your own, and be secure in the knowledge of the depth of God's love for you.
Elect and candidates, your faith community holds you in prayer in a very special way during these most holy days.
We will dismiss (the last one!!) from the 9:30am mass this week, with a session until 11:30am, as usual.
