In good times and in bad

Depending on how the entrance rite is celebrated, there are two Gospels at Masses on Palm Sunday (yesterday – sorry for the delay): the account of our Lord’s triumphant entrance when the crowd welcomes him with joy (Mark 11:1-10) and the account of our Lord’s Passion when the crowd condemns him to death (Mark 14:1-15:47).

May we always be focused on Christ in our moments of joy and may we always be faithful to Christ in our times of suffering and abandonment.
