We enter into Holy Week as we commemorate Palm Sunday today. The palm branches that we carry into the church in procession at the beginning of the Palm Sunday Mass symbolize Jesus’ triumphant entry into the holy city of Jerusalem. The ashes from the palm branches marked the beginning of our Lenten as we received a smudge from those ashes on our foreheads. With joy, humility, and trust, we enter into holy week as we commemorate the paschal mysteries of our faith. We invite all of you to our holy week liturgies and devotions. We hope that will join us for the liturgies of the Tritium, culminating with the entry of our candidates and catechumens into the Church at the Easter Vigil Mass, starting at 7:00 pm on Saturday evening. Blessings to all of you on this most meaningful week in our Catholic faith. Father Lincoln.
