A blessed Palm Sunday to you! Although this Palm Sunday is different from all the rest you have celebrated with family and friends, it is the start of Holy Week. Let us take advantage of the time we have been given and immerse ourselves in prayer. The Lord wants to renew us this Holy Week, He wants to draw us closer to Him. Let us accept this invitation. In conjunction with the Office of Liturgy, I'd like to share some resources with you. In addition to our previously recommended prayer resources for use when Mass is not available, you may find the following prayers and articles helpful: 1. Litany of Supplication: Please find the English and Spanish translations of the beautiful Litany of Supplication prayed by Pope Francis during his extraordinary Urbi et Orbi meditation and blessing on Friday, March 27, at the links above. 2.
