Palm Sunday (Wear RED today to Mass!) ...

HOLY WEEK, the most solemn and intense period 

of worship in the Christian faith, begins with

PALM SUNDAY of the PASSION of the LORD 

(full name), the Sunday before Easter. 

____________________

In spite of the spiritual gravity of Holy Week, it begins with joy. 
The Church celebrates Jesus' triumphal entry 

into Jerusalem and her commemorative pilgrimage

with her Lord on His way to Calvary.

Wear RED today to holy Mass!

The event is mentioned in all four Gospels:

Mark 11:1–11, Matt 21:1–11, Luke 19:28–44, John 12:12–19. 

🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶

All glory, laud and honor,

to Thee, Redeemer King.

To whom the lips of children 

made sweet hosannas ring.

Thou art the King of Israel,

Thou David's' royal Son, 

who in the Lord's name comest,

the King and Blessed One.

All glory... (Refrain)

The company of angels

are praising Thee on high, 

and we with all creation

in chorus make reply.

All glory... (Refrain)

"It is a fact that an age waxes or wanes

in proportion to the worship 

of the divine Eucharist.  It is there

 that is found the life and the measure

of its faith, its charity, and its vitality.

May the reign of the Eucharist

come about more and more.

For too long impiety and ingratitude have 

been allowed to hold sway over the world!

Adveniat regnum tuum. 

Thy Kingdom come."

St. Peter Julian Eymard

Adveniat regnum tuum.
Thy Kingdom come.
