 Gospel Reflection- Palm Sunday

Mk 14:1-15:47

Palm Sunday is the final Sunday of Lent, the beginning of Holy Week, and commemorates the triumphant arrival of Christ in Jerusalem, days before he was crucified. The Gospel reading on Palm Sunday is passion narrative. The Passion narrative is very aptly named. The emotion and power of this story is nothing short of passionate. The Gospel writer’s style of fast paced, unadorned factual narrative is a very effective way of helping the reader/listener to engage in the story. It is, after all, the first half of the most important Christian story – finished off by the resurrection that is celebrated on Easter Sunday. It is easy to see why this stark, narrative style was embellished and expanded upon by the later Gospel writers and yet it is perhaps the more passionate for its conciseness.

Vinnies Knock On Effect

Vinnies changes lives every day, but they need our help. During the month of March, Vinnies is running the Knock On Effect campaign to highlight the knock on effects that donations, fundraising and raising awareness can have. With over 2 million people living below the poverty line in Australia, including over half a million children, your contribution allows the St Vincent de Paul Society to provide more than immediate help, it provides something much more valuable - the opportunity of a better life. Please join us in supporting those who need a hand up in challenging times.
