WE celebrate PALM SUNDAY!

April 10, 2022

Dear Friends,

Today we celebrate Palm Sunday!

Palm Sunday in the Passion of the Lord: this is the name of this Sunday that opens Holy Week, Major Week, because in it we are invited to contemplate the Passion, Death and Resurrection of Jesus, the center of our Christian life. We celebrate Palm Sunday, remembering Jesus' triumphal entry into the holy city of Jerusalem. It is in the midst of the praises of the celebrating crowd that Jesus enters the city: “As he approached the descent from the Mount of Olives, the whole crowd of disciples began to praise God with a loud voice for all the miracles they had seen, saying: Blessed be the King who comes in the name of the Lord. Peace in Heaven and glory in the highest!”». (Luke 19, 28-40)

Two thousand years later, with olive branches in hand, acclaiming Jesus, our Savior and Redeemer, we cannot just contemplate the glorious entrance of Jesus, but become aware that Palm Sunday is celebrated in the Passion of the Lord, that is, that is, that in Jesus Christ, glory is not disconnected from the Cross, that the path that leads to eternity is marked by the vulnerability and fragility of our contingent existence.
