HOLY WEEK – PASSION AND DEATH
Without the CROSS there is no RESURECTION. Jesus’ teaching is very clear that unless you deny yourself, take up the cross and follow Him, you cannot be His disciple. A disciple is the one who is in communion with the Lord and follows Him. Whoever follows Him, He promises eternal life.
Unless the seed falls to the ground and dies, it cannot come to new life. Anyone who desires to reach the higher level has to die for the lower level by self-denial, sacrifice and mortification. Every saint, to be the disciple of Jesus and to reach eternal life, has denied himself even to the point of death. By our crosses we are united with Christ in His passion.
This is Holy Week and we spend our time in prayer and meditation over the passion and death of our Lord. We try to be close to Jesus and pray to the Lord that we may rise above in order to be united with the Lord. Hence, try to attend all liturgical services in this Holy Week and spend time in personal prayer that we may participate in the Resurrection of Jesus Christ.
We adore you, O Christ, and we praise you; for by the Holy Cross, you have redeemed the world.

Happy Easter - Jesus is Risen, Alleluia, Alleluia
God became man, died for us and rose to new life so that we might have life. He is our HOPE and goal. As Jesus resurrected, He gave us the grace and the power to resurrect our minds by prayer and meditation from the tomb of material desires and body confinement to the Divine; we resurrect from our restlessness to calmness, we resurrect from our ignorance to wisdom, and we resurrect from our mundane human attachment to divine love.
Brokenness has been transformed into beauty, death into life, sorrow into joy. Do not let Jesus’ living and His sufferings be in vain. When we follow Him we shall never walk in darkness. In God’s light we live. Believing in Jesus is not enough, we need to testify to the truth by our lives that Jesus is risen. That is our calling and mission.
Our prayer on this day of EASTER: Lead us from darkness to light, lift us from ignorance to wisdom, and resurrect us from sorrow to eternal bliss in You, O Infinite Christ, our Savior.
