Pray that the Lord allow you to accompany him serenely during these Easter mysteries and you may emerge from them renewed in faith, hope and charity. Palm Sunday is a moveable feast that falls on the Sunday before Easter. The Feast commemorates Jesus’ Triumphal entry in to Jerusalem, an event mentioned in each of the four Gospels. Palm Sunday marks the first day of Holy Week, the last week of the Christian solemn season of Lent that precedes the arrival of Eastertide. A triumph was a ceremonial and celebratory procession through the streets of a city.

  • Creating Mural 'Was So Magical' Pends Years Painting Tribute to Kapaun by ROY WENZL
    Creating mural 'was so magical' pends years painting tribute to Kapaun BY ROY WENZL The Wichita Eagle THE UNVEILING What: Mass and unveiling of artist Wendy Lewis' 12­foot mural of the Rev. Emil Kapaun, a priest of the Wichita Diocese and a Korean War hero whom the Vatican is considering for sainthood. Bishop Michael Jackels will celebrate the Mass. Where: St. John's Chapel, Sacred Heart Hall, Newman University, 3100 McCormick When: Wednesday. Mass begins at 5 p.m.; the unveiling will be at 6 p.m. A reception will follow at the Newman University campus center. How much: The event is free and open to the public. VIDEO As Wendy Lewis painted a face on a mural in the chapel at Newman University a few weeks ago, something strange and wonderful happened, she said. The eight other faces in the mural — the face of potential saint Father Emil Kapaun, for example — took her many layers of paint over many days to complete, she said. "You can see how I labored when you see his face," she said. But the ninth face — the face of Jesus — took only two layers and five hours. It has colors in it that she says she will never be able to replicate. It took almost no time at all. It's the best face she's ever painted, she said. "I kept turning around and wanting to see if anybody else was watching this happen," she said. "It was so magical." The public will get to see those faces in her mural at an unveiling at 6 p.m.

    FIFTH SUNDAY OF EASTER WWW.STJOHNTRYON.COM SPIRITUAL READING & REFLECTION THE COMMANDMENT OF LOVE If you don’t have love for one another, then how can you love Christ? How can they see Jesus in you? That’s why we need a clean heart, to see Jesus. Love one another. That’s all Jesus came to teach us. The whole Gospel is very, very simple. Do you love me? Obey my commandments. He’s turning and twisting just to get around to one thing: love one another. He wants us to be really, really loving…. Intense love does not measure; it just gives. To be an apostle of the Sacred Heart, one must be burning with love, intense love for your neighbor…. These words of Jesus, Love one another, even as I have loved you, should be not only a light to us, but they should also be a flame consuming the selfishness which prevents the growth of holiness. Jesus loved us to the end, to the very limit of love: the cross. This love must come from within, from our union with Christ. It must be an outpouring of our love for God, in one family, a family with the common Father, who is in heaven. Loving must be as normal to us as living and breathing, day after day until our death. Saint Teresa of Calcutta Saint Teresa of Calcutta (+ 1997) founded the Missionaries of Charity and won the Nobel Peace Prize. May Magnificat 2019 At the conclusion of their missionary journey, Paul and Barnabas tell the Antioch community all that the Lord had accomplished in their preaching the kingdom of God.

CATECHETICAL RESOURCES IX. APPENDIX I. WHY ST. JOSEPH? WHY NOW? On December 8, 1870, The Sacred Congregation of Rites promulgated the following decree, which communicated the decision of Pope Pius IX to declare St. Joseph Patron of the Universal Church, and which also raised St. Joseph’s feast of March 19 to the rank of double of the first class. Quemadmodum Deus Pope Pius IX As almighty God appointed Joseph, son of the patriarch Jacob, over all the land of Egypt to save grain for the people, so when the fullness of time had come and he was about to send to earth his only- begotten Son, the Savior of the world, he chose another Joseph, of whom the first had been the type, and he made him the lord and chief of his household and possessions, the guardian of his choicest treasures. Indeed, he had as his spouse the Immaculate Virgin Mary, of whom was born by the Holy Spirit, Jesus Christ our Lord, who deigned to be reputed in the sight of men as the son of Joseph, and was subject to him. Him whom countless kings and prophets had desired to see, Joseph not only saw but conversed with, and embraced in paternal affection, and kissed.
