March 25 2018 Palm Sunday of The Passion of The Lord YOUTH MINISTRIESCCD: Ann Parfaite Junior Daughters: Kewana Pate Junior Knights: Michael Gordon Youth Choir: Irene Young Altar Servers: Kimberly Mirabin Youth & Young Adults Club: Elijah Reynolds Palm Sunday of The Passion of The Lord Beloved Church Family, Yes, we have been on the road to Calvary throughout this Lenten journey, and this weekend we are entering in the holiest week of the year commonly known as Holy Week. On Holy Thursday, we will commemorate the Institution of the Eucharist and will mark the symbolism of the washing of the feet which was marked by Jesus Himself before He died. Then on Good Friday, we take time to reflect on the death and crucifixion of Jesus on the Cross. On Holy Saturday, we will celebrate the Easter Vigil, and on Easter Sunday, we will sign Alleluia, Alleluia, He is risen. I hope that you had a successful Lenten journey with Jesus on the road to Calvary. Now, this week is going to be a week where we devote and dedicate ourselves to the Easter celebrations. Yes, Holy Week is a week that the Church gives us as a week of remembrance of the mystery of the salvation of mankind. This also is the week where we contemplate and meditate on God s love that is revealed in the person of Jesus who gave His life as a ransom for many. Church Family I hope that you are going to have a Holy Week filled with joy and many blessings. I promise you that you will be remembered in my thoughts and prayers throughout this Holy Week. May this Holy Week bring us many blessings both collectively as a parish and individually. With love and admiration, yours, Very Rev. Oswald P. Pierre-Jules, Jr., S.S,J., V.F.
