Palm Sunday & Holy Week

Palm Sunday & Holy Week

Divine Saviour, Prince of Peace,


 In this way the crowds in Jerusalem greeted Jesus coming in the holy city. They spread their cloaks and cut branches from the trees, laying them on the road to honor the Son of David. 


PALM SUNDAY AND HOLY WEEK


 Each year Palm Sunday takes us spiritually to Jerusalem to sing Hosanna to the King. Yet, during the Liturgy we listen to the Passion of the Lord too. We proceed from that solemn and joyful entry to the Cross. Palm Sunday opens the most important week of the liturgical year – the Holy Week that prepares us directly for the Paschal Feasts. With the Lord’s Supper Mass, we begin the Sacred Pascal (Easter) Triduum – the greatest three days. The Liturgy leads us from the Cenacle through the Passion, Death and Grave to the glorious Resurrection of the Lord.
