Holy Thursday Today's Holy Thursday celebration marks a pivotal moment in our faith journey. It's a time to reflect on the Last Supper, where Jesus instituted the sacrament of the Eucharist, giving us a profound gift that continues to nourish and sustain us.

As we gather around the Lord's table, we're reminded of the depth of Jesus' love for us. He showed us the true meaning of humility and service by washing the feet of his disciples, saying, "I have given you a model to follow, so that as I have done for you, you should also do"

This act of foot washing wasn't just a simple gesture; it was a powerful symbol of Jesus' love and willingness to serve. It's a call to each of us to follow in his footsteps, to love and serve one another with humility and generosity.

As we celebrate the Eucharist, we're not just remembering a past event; we're making present the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross. We're uniting ourselves with him, and with each other, in a bond of love and communion.

So let us approach the Eucharist with reverence and gratitude, mindful of the incredible gift we're receiving. Let us strive to follow Jesus' example, serving one another with humility and love. And let us pray for our priests, that they may continue to bring Jesus to his people

May our celebration of Holy Thursday be a time of deep spiritual renewal, and may we emerge from this Easter Triduum with hearts filled with love, hope, and joy.

“Unless there is a Good Friday in your life, there can be no Easter Sunday.”- Archbishop Fulton J Sheen

Good Friday "He Tasted Death So We Can Taste Life" Today, we reflect on the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, who gave his life on the cross to bear the penalty of our sins. As Hebrews 2:9 says, "But we do see Jesus, who was made lower than the angels for a little while, now crowned

with glory and honor because he suffered death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone." Jesus' sacrifice demonstrates God's profound love for humanity. By tasting death on the cross, Jesus took upon himself the penalty of our sins, freeing us from

the power of lawlessness and enabling us to walk in righteousness. This sacrifice allows us to have a restored relationship with God, filled with hope and promise.

Reflections 1. Do you find it hard to follow God's laws, faltering every time you try to do right? 2. Will you turn to Jesus Christ today, reflecting on his sacrifice and the life he offers? Jesus tasted death so that we might taste life. Through his sacrifice, we can break free

from sin and walk in righteousness, empowered by the Holy Spirit. As we commemorate Good Friday, let us reflect on the depth of God's love and the gift of salvation offered to us through Jesus Christ.

We remember and honor the Christian martyrs who lost their lives in the 2019 Easter Sunday Islamist terror attacks in Sri Lanka.

Today, we gather to celebrate the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. In the midst of darkness and despair, Jesus rose from the dead, bringing light and hope to a world in need. As we reflect on the events of Holy Week, we're reminded of the depth of God's love for us.

Jesus's sacrifice on the cross was a profound act of love, demonstrating that God values us beyond measure. The resurrection is more than just a historical event; it's a promise of new life. Through Jesus's resurrection, we're offered a chance to start anew, to

leave behind the old and embrace the new. As we celebrate, let's remember that the resurrection is not just a celebration of His triumph over death but a reminder of our potential for transformation. May the joy and hope of Easter fill our hearts and guide us in the days ahead.
