MEDITATION <\/em><\/strong>by Father Duolomane (Joe)<\/em><\/p>\n

Holy Week, which begins on Palm Sunday, opens with the shouts of people celebrating, continues in the contradiction between human hatred and God’s love, and ends with the manifestation of God’s mercy that is Easter. <\/em><\/p>\n

Today’s feast has two parts: the first is Palm Sunday, when Jesus is recognized as the Christ and the people welcome him by singing and waving olive branches and palm leaves. The palm branches symbolize the Lord’s victory over death by dying himself and his triumph over the devil. The second part is the Passion, and Jesus is described as a man gripped by anguish and fear. His face is without glory and humiliated.<\/em><\/p>\n

If we want to follow Christ without stumbling through prosperity or adversity, let us contemplate him in honour in this procession, subjected to outrages and suffering in his passion, but keeping an unchanging soul in such disruption.<\/em><\/p>\n
