This is a sacramental night – a sacrament is a sign that speaks of something beyond itself. We live our lives in sacraments. A smile, a hug, a kiss, a wave, a scowl, these are parts of our body language that send a message.

We just listened to the passion story as told by Luke. We’ve heard how Jesus shared His last meal with his friends giving them the gift we receive at this Mass, His body, His blood as the nourishment that strengthens us to face the struggles of life. We’ve heard of his agonizing prayer in the garden and his plea ‘if it is possible let this chalice pass me by – not my will but yours be done. We followed Jesus through those painful events of his betrayal and denial by his closest friends, his phony trial, and his humiliation as he dragged his cross thru the streets to outside the walls of the city to his place of execution. We are shocked by his cruel death and at the same time we still can’t believe that it was all for us. Jesus thought enough of you and me that he died for us.
Founded by St. Paul of the Cross, every Passionist takes a special vow to spend his or her energies in promoting remembrance of the sufferings of Jesus, the memory of the Cross, and reflection of the meaning of the Cross for the world.
