Palm Sunday
March 29, 2015
For weeks now,
since Ash Wednesday, we have been preparing, for the celebration of our Lord's
paschal mystery. Today we join together for this solemn celebration in union
with the whole Church throughout the world. We are reminded that Christ entered
in triumph into his own city, to complete his work as our Messiah: to
suffer, to die, and to rise again. We are called to remember this special
event and with love and devotion we unite with Christ in our special time of
prayer and penance recalling His suffering on the cross. We pray that we may share His resurrection
and new life.
The palms that
we will bless help us acclaim Jesus as our Messiah and King. Pray today that one day all of us will
experience the happiness of that new and everlasting life with God by
faithfully following Him now and throughout the rest of the days of our life.
