Palm Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week. As I have not been working on Sunday's this year, it was nice to see and welcome everyone - As the church filled up and the blessed palms were distributed, the children were gathered around the altar. With the help of the altar servers and the children's liturgy animators - the "parade" marched down the aisles waiving their palms and signing HOSANNA. It's a great way for the children to grasp the reality of HOLY WEEK. Something different was in the air. There's lots more to come until all together we can shout again "ALLELUIA He is Risen - Indeed He is risen"
I hope that we all have a very meaningful Holy Week - filled with the graces that come from seeking the One who gave his Life for US.
