Palm Sunday LITURGY OF THE WORD
1st READING 1 ISAIAH 50:4-7 (Christ’s Suffering) The servant was persecuted and struck by his own people; he was spit upon and beaten. He proclaims the true faith and suffers to atone for the sins of his people. Here we see the foreshadowing of the true Servant of God. RESPONSORIAL PSALM 22 (Christ’s Abandonment) My God, my God, Why have you abandoned me?
2nd READING PHILIPPIANS 2:6-11 (Humility) Paul urges us to humility by which we are made like Christ our Lord. He put off the majesty of his divinity and became man and humbled himself in obedience to the ignominious Death on the Cross. THE GOSPEL OF MATTHEW 26:14-27:66 (Christ’s Passion) Matthew portrays the Passion and Death of Jesus. Jesus gives his disciples his Body and Blood. Judas betrays him. Jesus is condemned to die on the Cross. SCRIP orders are due on the first weekend of every month. Order forms are located at the entrances. PRAYER REQUESTS Please email any prayer requests to Kathy Karmire. (karmire54@gmail.com) Communion Needs at American Martyrs Please call Ramona Barger at 812-525-2043 or Susan Anderson at 812-595-2139
