Dear friend,

"God is dead", wrote a modern atheist thinker. Very modern, but limited! Because, for 21 centuries, we Christians do say much more about God: "God has died FOR US and He has RISEN".

"For us" and "risen": these are the two fundamental questions the Church is proposing us to ponder over this Holy Week. Just follow the footsteps of the Lord!

Contemplating today’s Gospel

Palm Sunday: «Are you the King of the Jews?» (Mt 26,14—27,66)

Monday of Holy Week: «Anointed the feet of Jesus, wiping them with her hair» (Jn 12,1-11)

Tuesday of Holy Week: «It was night» (Jn 13,21-33.36-38)

Wednesday of Holy Week: «Truly, I say to you: one of you will betray me» (Mt 26,14-25)

Holy Thursday: «If I, then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet (...) » (Jn 13,1-15)

Good Friday: «It is accomplished. Then He bowed his head and gave up the spirit» (Jn 18,1—19,42)

Holy Saturday: Aliturgical day, without Gospel, but we shall have a commentary from F. Jacques Philippe

Easter Sunday: «He saw and believed» (Jn 20,1-9)
