Father Anton's Weekly Column

Palm Sunday - Year A

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

We have arrived at the beginning of Holy Week, celebrating Jesus’ welcome into Jerusalem. Holy week is the most significant and important time of the Church’s year. On Thursday we celebrate the Washing of Feet, the Last Supper and the Institution of the Eucharist. As the church is prepared for Good Friday there will be watching until Midday. Watching is a time for personal prayer before the Blessed Sacrament. You can sign up for a half hour slot if you wish in order to be a guardian for the Altar of Adoration.
