———CALENDAR OF THE WEEK———

Dear Parishioners and Visitors,

Happy Palm/Passion Sunday and beginning of

Holy Week. It goes without saying, (though I’ll say it

anyway) that this next few days are the most solemn

of the entire liturgical year. They help us connect with

real events that took place nearly 2,000 years ago to a

real person at an actual time and place, events that

have nonetheless had transformative effects in the

lives of millions. We are called by the Church to not

be passive witnesses of these events, nor to let them

pass us by with indifference. Rather, we are called to

connect as best as possible so that we can live, not like

the rest who have no hope, but freed from fear and full

of confidence in the Lord. That has always been the

fruit of Holy Week for me—renewed confidence in

God’s love for me and his power to save. So, please

make time this week to pray with your brothers and

sisters in the liturgies of Holy Week.

Just a reminder that a number of priests will be

hearing confessions today beginning at 4:00pm at

OLGC for the annual Palm Sunday Penance Service,

and the confessional at OLGC will be open this Mon-

day, April 15 from 2:00 until 5:00pm for the sacra-

ment of reconciliation as well. I hope you all have a

very meaningful Holy Week and I look forward to cel-

ebrating with you.

God bless you all!

Fr. Michael

Holy Week

Holy Week is the most solemn and glorious week in

Christianity, the pinnacle of the liturgical year. It is

more sacred than Christmas! This is because Holy

Week commemorates the final week of Our Lord's life,

the very purpose for which Christmas happened.

Holy Week begins with Palm Sunday (when Jesus

made his final entrance into Jerusalem) and culminates

with Easter Sunday. As Holy Week progresses to its

final days the solemnity heightens. The days of holy

week are called the

Triduum - The “Great Three Days” -the three-part cel-

ebration beginning with the Mass of the Lord’s Supper

on Holy Thursday, continuing with The Celebration of

the Lord’s Passion on Good Friday, and concluding

with the Easter Vigil on Holy Saturday.

(Check the bulletin for Holy Week Mass schedule)

********************************

The ST. AMBROSE SANCTUARY LAMP burns this

week to the glory of Almighty God and in memory of

Thomas Powell at the request of his wife, Arlene.

The OLGC Sanctuary Lamp burns this week to the glo-

ry of God and in memory of Peg Burnett at the request of

Joe Burnett.

Virtus Training: It is recommended that all church volun-

teers take the Safe Environment Training Class. If you are

in need of training, please go to Syracuse Diocese.org select

Safe Environment to view classes offered & register online.

A FAMILY PERSPECTIVE from

the Office of Family Life Education (A

Hope Appeal Agency)

Today Jesus tells us “I am among you as

one who serves.” In accepting the palm branch today you

publicly confirm your baptismal promise to follow Jesus as

“one who serves.” Selfless service defines a family as

Christian.
