Journey with Fr. Bob Bedard, founder of the Companions of the Cross, through Holy Week.
Passion/Palm Sunday
What is our response as we make our pilgrimage to Calvary? Are we satisfied with our response during Lent? There is still time; here are four things we can do:
- Prayer – Spend some extra time in quiet prayer before the Lord this week.
- Fasting – We are called to fast on Good Friday.
- Challenge – Allow God to challenge us.
- Shake one unfamiliar hand next weekend.
Monday of Holy Week
Our relationship with Jesus is number one. It may not be practical, but it is the thing that really counts.
Tuesday of Holy Week
Allow Jesus to love you. Take down the barriers and allow him to love you to the fullest.
Wednesday of Holy Week
Coming to terms with Jesus is the number one thing we must do in this life.
Mass of the Lord’s Supper (Holy Thursday)
Jesus Christ, the true living person in the Blessed Sacrament in the tabernacle, is an incredible gift. Let us thank the Lord!
Good Friday
We are here because we believe that Jesus was the Son of God. The purpose of life is to find our way to God. Jesus can draw you to himself. He can change your life. You have only to let him.
Easter Vigil
We celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. The tomb couldn’t hold him. The grave was not strong enough to keep him in. We celebrate the rising of Jesus Christ to eternal life.
Easter Sunday
Jesus has transformed death into a gateway to eternal life.
