Western Diocese e-Newsletter
Dear Reader
As Christ entered Jerusalem, the people of the Holy City rejoiced and
their lives were transformed by the presence of God. This is the
ultimate goal of the Holy Week. We must renew our lives by enriching
our spirituality with the Word of God and His wisdom.
The Almighty God has bestowed upon humanity the blessed opportunity to
return to Him. Accepting Christ as our Lord and Savior is the blessed
reward of the glorious promise. We must realize the enormity of His
return, open our hearts to Him, and accept Him into our lives.
Indeed, Christ endures great suffering upon His return. He however
accepts the sins of all mankind with His Victorious Resurrection.
