The Story of Our Redemption We begin the final week of Lent with these familiar readings. This year, we hear the Passion from the Gospel of Luke. These readings for Palm Sunday and the Passion used to be read on successive Sundays. Now they are combined into a single feast, so that we may see the whole sweep of the glory and the suffering played out. Jesus accepts the adulation of the crowd, the foreshadowing of his glory in the Resurrection. He bids farewell to his disciples in his last Passover, and forgives his tormentors as he dies on the cross. Later this week, we enter the Holy Trid-uum of Holy Thursday, Good Friday, and Holy Satur-day, when the whole story of our redemption will play out once again. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

Palm Sunday: The Cross Is Before Us
“They took branches of palm trees and went out to meet him.” —John 12:13 The cross is before us now with its word-less challenge to love beyond death. Take some time this week to think about events in your own life that have given you an experience of Jesus’ command to pick up your cross and follow him. On the night of Palm Sunday in 1212, Saint Clare left her home and walked through the darkened streets to the gate that led to her new life. We, too, are called to move out of our comfort zones, to take steps to follow the Gospel more rad-ically in our lives. Just as Saint Francis and his brothers welcomed Clare, the communion of saints encourages us on our way. Printed with permission from Franciscan Media; www.FranciscanMedia.org
Holy Thursday: Eucharist
“ I received from the Lord what I also handed on to you.”—1 Corinthians 11:23 Saint Francis was absolutely devoted to the Eucharist. It’s one of the reasons he was so con-cerned about rebuilding and cleaning local church-es, making them suitable homes for the Eucharist. Today’s Gospel account of Jesus washing the dis-ciples’ feet offers an antidote to the problems our human Church encounters. Francis takes this to heart in his Admonitions when he says: “I did not come to be served but to serve (Matthew 20:28), our Lord tells us. Those who are put in charge of others should be no prouder of their office than if they had been appointed to wash the feet of their confreres.” Printed with permission from Franciscan Media; www.FranciscanMedia.org
Good Friday; By Your Holy Cross
“One of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and at once blood and water came out.” —John 19:34 For Saint Francis, meditating on the Pas-sion was a means of uniting himself completely to the sacrifice of Christ on the cross, a way of living so thoroughly into the mystery of Christ that he was able to lead others into this mystery. He wrote in his Testament: “And God inspired me with such faith in his churches that I used to pray with all simplicity, saying, ‘We adore you, Lord Jesus Christ, here and in all your churches in the whole world, and we bless you, because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.’” As we jour-ney with Francis, he brings us always to the cross and to Christ.
