As we move closer to the most solemn and holy week of the Christian year, prayerfully consider attending as many Holy Week liturgies as possible! Holy Week begins in just a few days with Palm Sunday. It has been said, “You can’t really understand Holy Week unless go through it yourself.” Don’t just go about your daily duties and miss these beautiful and solemn liturgies we only experience once each year. Is there anything really more important than experiencing the Last Supper with in the institution of the Eucharist and priesthood, Christ’s crucifixion and death, and his resurrection? Jesus is waiting for YOU: he is waiting for YOU to eat with him, keep watch with him, to walk the road of the cross with him, to die with him, and to rise with him.

These once-per-year celebrations are packed with wonderful symbolism, beautiful music, and deep emotion.
