#CATHOLIC FAITHLINK: Catholic Mass Readings: Monday of #HolyWeek 4.10.17 – USCCB/NABRV

Historic Bible

“Six days before Passover #Jesus came to Bethany,
where Lazarus was, whom Jesus had raised from the dead.
They gave a dinner for Him there, and Martha served,
while Lazarus was one of those reclining at table with him.
Mary took a liter of costly perfumed oil
made from genuine aromatic nard
and anointed the feet of Jesus and dried them with her hair. …

The large crowd of the Jews found out that He was there and came,
not only because of Him, but also to see Lazarus,
whom He had raised from the dead.
And the chief priests plotted to kill Lazarus too,
because many of the Jews were turning away
and believing in Jesus because of him.”

All glory, laud, and honor
to you, Redeemer, King,
to whom the lips of children
made sweet hosannas ring.
You are the King of Israel
and David’s royal Son,
now in the Lord’s name coming,
the King and Blessed One.

“All Glory Laud and Honor,” by Saint Theodulph ca. 9th century, translated by John Mason Neale, 1851, sung at the Basilica of the Sacred Heart at the University of Notre Dame. [lyrics continue below video]


The company of angels
is praising you on high;
and we with all creation
in chorus make reply.
The people of the Hebrews
with palms before you went;
our praise and prayer and anthems
before you we present.

The people of the Hebrews
With palms before You went;
Our prayer and praise and anthems
Before You we present.

To You, before Your passion,
They sang their hymns of praise;
To You, now high exalted,
Our melody we raise.

CATHOLIC FAITHLINK: “Sermon for Palm Sunday”/”Blessed is he who comes in the Name of the Lord” – Blessed Guerric of Igny (c.1080-1157), Cistercian abbot

Cross Atop Rocky Cliff

“… If we consider today’s procession and the Passion together, we see Jesus sublime and glorious on one hand,  and humiliated and suffering on the other. For in the procession he receives royal honors and in the Passion he is mortified as a criminal. … Lord Jesus, whether your face be glorious or humiliated, we always see wisdom shining in it. On your face shines the refulgence of eternal light …. O Lord, may your light, the light of your face (Ps 4:7), always shine upon us, in sorrow as in happiness… You are joy and salvation for all, both when you ride on a donkey and when you hang from a cross.”

“… at least 44 people were killed and more than 100 more were injured in two Palm Sunday suicide attacks at Coptic Christian churches, each carried out by the ISIS terror group. Sunday’s first blast happened at St. George Church in the Nile Delta town of Tanta, where at least 27 people were killed and 78 others wounded, officials said.
Television footage showed the inside of the church, where a large number of people gathered around what appeared to be lifeless, bloody bodies covered with papers. A second explosion – which Egypt’s Interior Ministry says was caused by a suicide bomber who tried to storm St. Mark’s Cathedral in the coastal city of Alexandria — left at least 17 dead, and 48 injured. The attack came just after Pope Tawadros II — leader of the Coptic Orthodox Church of Alexandria — finished services, but aides told local media that he was unharmed. …”
