Christ became obedient to the point of death,
even death on a cross.
Because of this, God greatly exalted him and
bestowed on him the name
which is above every name.
Please pick up Palms at the door as you enter
My dear friends,
Welcome to Holy Week, the most sacred time of our year! We enter it today with Palm Sunday, recalling Jesus’ triumphant entry into Jerusalem and the beginning of His Passion. This week, the Church invites us to walk with Christ—from the Upper Room on Holy Thursday, where He gives us the Eucharist and the priesthood, to the Cross on Good Friday, where He lays down His life in love for us, and finally to the empty tomb on Easter, where joy and hope are reborn in the resurrection!
I encourage you to fully enter into this holy time—through our liturgies, prayer in church, and by making a good confession this Reconciliation Monday (2–4 p.m. & 6–9 p.m., here or at any parish). Join us for our pilgrimage to St. Patrick’s Cathedral on Tuesday afternoon as the holy oils are blessed and we priests renew our promises at the Chrism Mass (named after the Sacred Chrism oil that is used for Baptisms, Confirmations and Priestly Ordinations).
After the Mass of the Lord’s Supper Thursday evening, I encourage visits to various churches for the "altars of repose" — a meaningful tradition as we imitate Jesus praying in the Garden of Olives and staying awake with Him. I especially encourage our young adults to do this as a group. (I hope to send out an updated list of potential churches and hours of Adoration for Holy Thursday Eve by Pastor's Flocknote on or before Wednesday.)

We are adding a Sensory Friendly Stations of the Cross on Holy Thursday at 2:00pm in the church. Please spread the word.
The IHM Young Adult Group will be holding an Easter Basket Drive for underprivileged children in the Westchester community. Items needed include baskets, plastic eggs, Easter grass, small Easter toys and chocolate and candy that has no trace or contact with peanuts and tree nuts. Any donations would be greatly appreciated until Monday, April 14th, at the Christ the King altar.
To our Jewish neighbors and family members, we extend warm wishes for a joyful and peaceful Passover this week.
Please note: due to church cleaning on Tuesday and Wednesday this Holy Week, Adoration will end at 12 noon on those days. It will resume Easter Monday from 7:15am to 12noon, then be back to its regular schedule beginning Easter Tuesday, April 22nd.
Thank you to Karen Pelella of the Parish Council, our local Keogh Council of the Knights of Columbus, and all who supported our Lenten Fish Fries! To those who came out Thursday for reflection and song, I greatly appreciated your presence.
To our choir under the direction of Dr. Laurie Adamo, who have been practicing hard to prepare for this week, to our lectors, ushers, servers and extraordinary ministers of Holy Communion preparing our liturgies - thank you! To the HSA and class parents who accompanied our school children in grades K-8 to see King of Kings yesterday — what a beautiful and moving portrayal of Jesus’ life to prepare for this Holy Week! I recommend catching it in the theaters!
May these sacred days draw us all closer to the heart of Jesus.

Celebrate God’s Mercy!
It is a great thing to hear about God’s merciful love;
it is even better to experience it – personally.
No matter how long it may have been since your last Confession
– weeks, years or even decades –
there is no time like the start of Holy Week
to know the Mercy of God in the Sacrament of Penance.
Seize this moment of grace at the start of Holy Week. Bring a friend!

Sunday, April 13th Palm Sunday of the Passion of our Lord
Friends, how dark are the readings for Palm Sunday! We read through Luke’s Passion narrative, leaving out the good news of the Resurrection. To get to the bottom of this emphasis on suffering, to decipher its religious meaning, is to uncover the theological significance of this day.
Do you remember the first time that life really knocked you around? It might have been an extraordinary failure; it might have been the first time you confronted real violence or real hatred; it might have been a massive disappointment; it might have been the death of someone that you loved. This mess, this problem, bedevils all of us.
The biblical approach is clear: God sets about a rescue operation—the formation of a holy people Israel who would follow his commands, worship him aright, and thereby become a magnet to the world. They would teach and show the way out of the dilemma.
He would form a people ready to receive him; he would gradually effect a unity between divinity and humanity; and one day, a servant of Yahweh would appear, someone despised and reviled by men. And this mysterious figure would solve the problem by bearing away the sins of the world, by carrying them off through his suffering.
