Celebrating as a parish
The most significant week in our Church's
Liturgical Calendar is, of course, Holy Week.
Palm Sunday (March 24) is the first day. Later
that week, we will celebrate the Holy Triduum,
Holy Thursday, Good Friday, and the Easter.
The Lord's Passion, Death, and Resurrection are
the center and core of our faith. I encourage all to
attend these celebrations which so richly remind
us, as well as challenge us, to live out these
events in our own lives.
