Father Sean's Weekly Message
March 22, 2024
Dear Friends in Christ,
On this Good Friday, let’s reflect on the betrayal of Judas that put this all into motion. Jesus foretells his own betrayal. It is important to remember, Judas was chosen to be a disciple and Jesus loved him. The short encounter between Jesus and Judas, Jesus is saying, “I already know what you are planning to do; I know your problems, your evil intentions, your secret sins. Yet still I am here with you.” Since he already knows, why continue down this path? Why do we? It is not too late! He will never give up on us!
Let’s remember what these days mean, “I slept on the cross and a sword pierced my side for you who slept in paradise and brought forth Eve from your side. My side has healed the pain in yours. My sleep will rouse you from your sleep in hell. The sword that pierced me has sheathed the sword that was turned against you."
