Palm Sunday 2018 - Year B
(March 25, 2018)
(March 25, 2018)
A. Introduction
a) To the
Holy Mass
Dear Sisters and
Brothers in Christ,
Good morning!
This Sunday we
celebrate the solemn entrance of Christ Jesus, our Lord, into the Holy City
Jerusalem.
A vast crowd raising
branches of palm and shouts welcome him while some closely observe the
happenings to find the right time in order to carry out their evil plan. They have decided to kill Jesus to put to an
end all problems which they think He has caused to happen.
But no one knows
that it is Christ Himself Who willingly performs the tragedy of the Holy Cross
for the long-awaited salvation of the sinful humanity.
Please all stand for
the entrance hymn.
b) To the
Readings
- First
Reading Is 50:4-7:
The Suffering
Servant of God went through trials without resistance in total confidence that
the Lord God always stays at his side.
- Second Reading Phil 2:6-11:
Few theologians
could write doctrine on the mysteries of faith in beautiful forms of literature
and music. Saint Paul proves himself to
be an exception. The mystery of God’s self-humiliation
treated with his powerful pen appears so touching a hymn.
