Our Lenten journey draws to an end in April as we move into Holy Week. We enter into the dramatic story as we reenact Jesus’ procession into Jerusalem and preview what lies ahead on Palm/Passion Sunday, hear about his betrayal on Maundy Thursday, and as we reflect on the meaning of the cross on Good Friday. Jesus’ passion and death demonstrates God’s commitment to join us in pain, loss, fear, and suffering in the world. But in the midst of that pain, loss, fear, and suffering, and even in the face of death, God brings good news of resurrection and new life! This is the good news that we celebrate on Easter Sunday.
