Now it is Getting Serious

Holy Week includes the last of the 40 Days of Lent, the Sacred Paschal Triduum, and Easter Sunday of the Resurrection of the

Lord. These are the holiest days of the year and the annual celebration of the sacred mysteries through which we are saved from sin

and death and restored to the glory of the children of God.

Today, on Palm Sunday of the Passion of the Lord, the sacred liturgy begins with this instruction from the priest: “Dear brethren,

since the beginning of Lent until now, we have prepared our hearts by penance and charitable works. Today we gather together to

herald with the whole Church the beginning of the celebration of our Lord’s Paschal Mystery, that is to say, of his Passion and

Resurrection. For it was to accomplish this mystery that he entered his own city of Jerusalem. Therefore, with all faith and devo-

tion, let us commemorate the Lord’s entry into the city for our salvation, following in his footsteps, so that, being made by his

grace partakers of the Cross, we may have a share also in his Resurrection and life.”

Traditionally during Holy Week, all the priests in the diocese will gather with the Bishop at the altar of the Cathedral Church of St.

Joseph in Sioux Falls. We renew the promises of our priestly ordination, and the Bishop will bless the three Holy Oils that are

used throughout the year in the celebration of the sacraments.

On Maundy Thursday of the Lord’s Supper (this year in Hoven), we will celebrate a Solemn Mass in the evening to recall Christ’s

gifts to the Church of the Priesthood and the Holy Eucharist. Then the Most Blessed Sacrament will be carried to a place of repose

and the altar will be stripped — signs of the impending grief to come.

On Good Friday of the Passion of the Lord, we will meditate on the suffering and death of the Lord Jesus as recorded in the Gospel

according to St. John, and then we will adore the Holy Cross on which hung the salvation of the world.

Then, in the night of Holy Saturday (again, in Hoven), we will keep the Vigil of the Resurrection of the Lord. The whole plan of

salvation will be unfolded in Holy Scripture, and the sacraments of Holy Baptism, Confirmation, and the Eucharist will reveal the

glory of the Risen Christ in our midst. Finally, at Mass on Easter Sunday, all the baptized will renew the promises of their Bap-

tism so that we may rededicate ourselves to follow Christ in the Holy Catholic Church. But all that lies ahead. For now, let us

acclaim Christ: Hosanna to the Son of David; blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, the King of Israel. Hosanna in the

highest.

Happy Anniversary

Are you celebrating a milestone wedding anniversary this year? If you are Bish-

op Swain would like to celebrate it with you. There will be a Mass in Aberdeen

or Sioux Falls this summer honoring those married in the following years: 1991,

1966, 1956, 1951, and before 1951. This Mass is for parishioners of the Diocese of

Sioux Falls. You do not both have to be Catholic to be recognized for this Mass. Please let

Melissa know 285-6466 or drop a note in the collection basket with your names and

wedding date by April 10th if you are interested in attending this special Anniversary

Mass. Personal invitations will be sent by the Bishop with the date, time and location.

The Hoven High School senior & junior classes will present the Living Stations of the Cross on Wednesday, March 23rd @ 7:00pm in St. An-

thony’s Church. The portrayal of the Way of the Cross is an excellent way to meditate on the loving, sacrificial act of Christ’s love for the sake

of the world.

Pope Francis’ Prayer Intentions for MARCH

Universal: Families in Difficulty. That families in need may receive the necessary support and that children may grow up in healthy and peaceful envi-ronments. For Evangelization: Persecuted Christians. That those Christians who, on account of their faith, are discriminated against or are being persecuted, may remain strong and faithful to the Gospel, thanks to the incessant prayer of the Church.
