Dear Mary Queen of Peace Parish Family, 

With the ritual celebration of the Lord’s Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem, we have begun our liturgy of Holy Week. We continued with the solemn proclamation of the Passion and Death of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, and so we are now focused on God’s plan for our salvation. Literally, thank God this week that Jesus loved us enough to sacrifice his life for us sinners. Now we look ahead to the Sacred Triduum, three days that stand out against all other days of the year for believing Christians: 1) the day of Jesus’ Last Supper, 2) the day Jesus died on the cross, and 3) the day he rose from the dead. As Catholics we celebrate the Triduum with special ceremonies at church. Make time for your faith! Make these three days different! Make them count!
