Palm Sunday Homily
My brothers and sisters in Christ,
We enter into this Holy Week, in this extraordinary and challenging time.
Jesus enters Jerusalem today as a king, triumphant, surrounded by a large crowd. He dies, crucified, abandoned and alone.
St. Paul tells us today, “Christ Jesus … emptied himself… coming in human likeness… he humbled himself, becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.”
