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 Triduum of Holy Thursday,

Good Friday, and Holy Saturday, when the whole story of

our redemption will play out once again.

Join our celebration of Divine Mercy The message of Divine Mercy is simple. God loves us — all of

us! And, he wants us to recognize that His mercy is greater

than our sins so that we will call upon Him with trust, receive

His mercy, and let it flow through us to others.

DIVINE MERCY CHAPLET & NOVENA All are encouraged to

pray the Divine Mercy Novena beginning on Good Friday,

April 19th and ending on Saturday, April 27th (day before

Evelyn Waugh said his famous novel, Brideshead Revisted, is

the story of grace – “that is to say, the unmerited and

unilateral act of love by which God continually calls souls to

Himself.” Join Father John Sims Baker for a discussion of

the novel, which has been called one of the best novels of

the 20th century. The Diocesan Office of Adult Formation

continues our Catholic Imagination series on Thursday,

April 25 at 7pm. All are welcome! Catholic Pastoral Center,

Souls4Souls Service Project Missy Shahan is collecting shoes (new, gently

used, or even very worn) for Souls4Souls as a

service project of Centennial Women’s Club.

If you would like to donate, a bin will be placed in

the side hallway of the church that leads to school

during the month of April. Thank you!

Later this week, the Chrism Mass is celebrated in every

cathedral in the world in preparation for the Easter Triduum.

Only a bishop can consecrate chrism, pure olive oil infused

with rich fragrance, so this liturgy is a sign of the unity of the

local Church and the bishop’s ministry to all who will be

baptized and confirmed in our parishes in the coming year.

Chrism is also used in the ordination of priests and bishops

and the consecration of new altars. Two other sacramental

oils, the unscented olive oil for catechumens and for the sick,

will be blessed in the same liturgy and transported carefully to

every parish by the beginning of the Triduum.

Remember when Noah’s dove returned with the sign of

the world’s rebirth? The dove carried an olive branch, a pledge

that God was breathing the world to life again. Yet olives

require human nurture. Olives are inedible unless they are

cured by human labor. Olive trees grow on sunny slopes, away

from the shade of city walls, so they can only be properly

tended, cured, and laboriously pressed in peace time. The

Chrism Mass with its olive oils expresses God’s deepest

desires for us, and our resolve to place our lives in service to

God’s saving, healing, loving plan.
