The Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
The most horrifying words ever written.
The Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ
The most consoling words ever proclaimed.
On Thursday we will commemorate the institution of the great gift of the Eucharist.
On Friday the Passion will be proclaimed again.
Afterwards we will venerate the cross.
But then follows the wild joy of the Easter Vigil.
But today we leave this church weighed down by the echo of the words:
The Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
We sit in stunned silence . . . . .
and inexpressible thanksgiving.
