FROM FATHER BLOOM DE PARTE DEL PADRE FELIPE
12 ways to make Holy Week more meaningful
THINK PRAYER. If you have to work or go to school during
Holy Week, think about how you can incorporate prayer breaks into each day. MAKE AN ADDITIONAL SACRIFICE by fas+ng and abstaining from meat on Holy Thursday and Holy Saturday in addi+on to Good Friday.
DON’T WATCH TELEVISION from sundown
on Holy Thursday un+l Easter morning.
GO to confession.
SET ASIDE 10 minutes every day to read Passion accounts in the Gospels.
Make it a point to FORGIVE someone on Good Friday.
PRAY the Sorrowful Mysteries of the Rosary.
OFFER UP any pain or difficul+es you experience
during Holy Week and unite your sufferings with the pain of Christ. PRAY the Sta+ons of the Cross. ATTEND all of the Triduum liturgies.
INVITE family members, friends and neighbors — especially
people who have strayed from the church — to come to church with you. VOLUNTEER to help decorate your parish on Holy Saturday for
Easter

Mi promesa a Dios es de no volver a caminar nuevamente por ese camino de autodestrucción.” -Tes+monio ¿La decisión de abortar le hizo sen+rse entumecido (a) emocional e interiormente destruido (a) que se preguntaba cómo es que todo eso le había afectado tanto?
