From the Desk of Father Jonathan
You have heard me joke that Palm Sunday is my favorite day of the year because I get to ride the don-key in procession around the Church. I'm only partly joking. I love this day because of what it means for our faith. When Jesus entered Jerusalem and mount-ed a donkey, the drama of his passion was at hand. Jesus knew exactly who he was and why he was going into Jerusalem, even if the people with palms in their hands had other ideas of what he would do for them.
Jesus had entered Jerusalem many times before, but this time his entrance was very different. He was going to lay his life down for each of us. He was go-ing to be crucified at the hands of the Romans and the Jewish leaders who feared him.
When Jesus mounted the donkey, he was fulfilling a prophecy that the Messiah would come mounted a humble animal, instead of an animal made for war. From Zachariah 9:9: "Our king is coming to you; righteous and having salvation is he, humble and mounted on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey."
When we process together around the church, the priest sits on a similar donkey and leads the commu-nity in a commemoration of that day when Our Lord and Savior showed us that his kingdom is not of this world. Sitting on that donkey and receiving the praise of the people, Jesus truly was a king, but not of geographical, political territories, as they wished, but rather of their hearts. Jesus entered Jerusalem to free all of those people, and all of us, from the conse-quences of our sin. Jesus has come to show us in unforgettable images what true freedom and power look like.
We hold our palms high and also lay them at his feet. And in our hearts, we say to him, "Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Jews, and King of my heart, enter into my life and make me everything you want me to be."
God bless you and your families as we begin this Holy Week.
Father Jonathan + REST IN PEACE +
Please pray for Victor Perez and all the faithful departed

PASSION
The contrast between the processional reading in today’s liturgy and the proclamation of the Passion is striking. We are given a glimpse of how profoundly the word of God is fulfilled in Jesus. First he must be hailed as the Messiah, the One who is to come. He must be acknowledged by all, though they do not know what they are saying. They think he is the promised king, a worldly king of the Jews who will free them from the Roman occupation. They do not yet understand, even the disciples, exactly where this triumphal procession is leading. In our lives, we too do not know where we are going. It is in faith that we can follow Christ wherever he may lead us, trusting that death is not the end, nor evil the victor.

LA PASSIONE
È allo stesso tempo l’ora della luce e l’ora delle tenebre. L’ora
della luce, poiché il sacramento del Corpo e del Sangue è stato istituito, ed è stato detto: “Io sono il pane della vita... Tutto ciò che il Padre mi dà verrà a me: colui che viene a me non lo respingerò... E questa è la volontà di colui che mi ha mandato, che io non perda nulla di quanto mi ha dato, ma lo risusciti l’ultimo giorno” (Gv 6,35-39). Come la morte è arrivata dall’uomo così anche la risurrezione è arrivata dall’uomo, il mondo è stato salvato per mezzo di lui. Questa è la luce della Cena. Al contrario, la tenebra viene da Giuda. Nessuno è penetrato nel suo segreto. Si è visto in lui un mercante di quartiere che aveva un piccolo negozio, e che non ha sopportato il peso della sua vocazione. Egli incarnerebbe il dramma della piccolezza umana. O, ancora, quello di un giocatore freddo e scaltro dalle grandi ambizioni politiche. Lanza del Vasto ha fatto di lui l’incarnazione demoniaca e disumanizzata del male. Tuttavia nessuna di queste figure collima con quella del Giuda del Vangelo. Era un brav’uomo, come molti altri. È stato chiamato come gli altri. Non ha capito che cosa gli si faceva fare, ma gli altri lo capivano? Egli era annunciato dai profeti, e quello che doveva accadere è accaduto. Giuda doveva venire, perché altrimenti come si sarebbero compiute le Scritture? Ma sua madre l’ha forse allattato perché si dicesse di lui: “Sarebbe stato meglio per quell’uomo se non fosse mai nato!”? Pietro ha rinnegato tre volte, e Giuda ha gettato le sue monete d’argento, urlando il suo rimorso per aver tradito un Giusto. Perché la disperazione ha avuto la meglio sul pentimento? Giuda ha tradito, mentre Pietro che ha rinnegato Cristo è diventato la pietra di sostegno della Chiesa. Non restò a Giuda che la corda per impiccarsi. Perché nessuno si è interessato al pentimento di Giuda? Gesù l’ha chiamato “amico”. È veramente lecito pensare che si trattasse di una triste pennellata di stile, affinché sullo sfondo chiaro, il nero apparisse ancora più nero, e il tradimento più ripugnante? Invece, se questa ipotesi sfiora il sacrilegio, che cosa comporta allora l’averlo chiamato “amico”? L’amarezza di una persona tradita? Eppure, se Giuda doveva esserci affinché si compissero le Scritture, quale colpa ha commesso un uomo condannato per essere stato il figlio della perdizione? Non chiariremo mai il mistero di Giuda, né quello del rimorso che da solo non può cambiare nulla. Giuda Iscariota non sarà più
“complice” di nessuno. © lachiesa.it
TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION For many centuries, Christian pilgrims have longed to walk in the footsteps of Jesus, and on Passion Sunday the eyes of the world are on the Via Dolorosa, the “Road of Sorrows,” in Jerusalem. As soon as it became safe for Christians to worship in public in the fourth century, a way was marked out. It was changed a few times over the years, and today’s usual route was sketched by the Franciscans six hundred years ago, alt-hough Anglicans and Byzantines have their own unique detours. Friday is the most favored day, although it is crowded then. Almost everyone begins at the Lion’s Gate in the Muslim Quarter, and ends at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. It’s less than a quarter mile, but it threads its way through crowded markets with souvenir shops and fast-food snacks. There are, just as in your parish church, fourteen stations along the way. The ex-act spots are not known, but what matters is the pil-grim’s unique ability to see even an ordinary road in a teeming city as something more than meets the eye.

LA PASIÓN
El contraste entre la lectura procesional de la liturgia de hoy y la proclamación de la Pasión es asombroso. Vislumbramos cuán profundamente la Palabra de Dios se cumple en Jesús. Primero Jesús debe ser acogido como el Mesías, el que viene en nombre del Señor. Debe ser reconocido por todos, aunque no sepan lo que están diciendo. Todos piensan que es el rey prometido; un rey terrenal de los judíos que los librará de la ocupación romana. No comprenden todavía, ni siquiera los discípulos, exactamente a dónde se dirige su procesión triunfal. Nosotros tampoco sabemos a dónde estamos yendo en nuestra vida. En la fe podemos seguir a Cristo dondequiera que nos guíe, porque estamos seguros de que la muerte no es el final y el mal no será el vencedor.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE
Esta es Semana Santa, semana en la cual los cris-tianos conmemoramos con palmas, y ramos los even-tos centrales de nuestra fe; eventos que alimentan nuestro espíritu con el pan y el vino del amor divino; eventos que se clavan en nuestras almas como Cristo en su cruz; eventos que nos hacen resucitar de nuestros problemas con la esperanza pascual de la liberación de todo aquello que nos perjudica, que nos agobia, que nos oprime y nos deprime. Estaremos allí con nuestros parientes y con gente que no conocemos pero que son nuestros hermanos y hermanas en Cristo gracias a los eventos de la semana en que Jesús entró glorioso a Jerusalén, partió el pan, falleció en el árbol de la cruz y fue sepultado. Esta Se-mana nos une al misterio pascual de Jesús. Celebrando estos ritos antiguos y variados por todo el mundo. Du-rante esta semana el tiempo y el espacio se cancelan para unirnos a los misterios que celebramos, a nuestras familias, a los cristianos por todo el mundo y a través de los siglos.
