Palm Sunday of the Passion of the Lord

From Palms to Passion. Ponder the Gospel of the story of Christ’s Passion and Death today. This is a long reading, so take just one scene or person from this Gospel to relate with today: Gethsemane, Peter’s denial, Pilate, Simon or Veronica during the way of the cross, Mary at the foot of the Cross.

Ask yourself what Christ’s passion means in your own life. How is Jesus encouraging you in the ways that you have loved him this Lent, no matter how small? Reflect on your Lenten journey. How can you enter this week with Christ on the Cross, whether or not you succeeded in your resolutions?

During this Holy Week, how can you tune in to the meaning of Christ’s Passion and live it united with Him? Can you make space to live the Holy Week celebrations: Holy Thursday 7pm. Good Friday 3pm. Easter Vigil (Saturday) at 8pm? …or become a Holy Week missionary by signing up by contacting evangelization@sacredheartcalgary.ca
