Jer 31:31-34
Heb 5:7-9
Ps 51:3-4, 12-15
Jn 12:20-33
Meditation: How can death lead to life and defeat to
glory? Jesus described his approaching death on the
cross as his “hour of glory” (John 12:23) when he would
be “lifted up from the earth” and would “draw all men to
himself” (John 12:32). Jesus saw his death on the cross
as triumph over the powers of sin and darkness. Jesus
drew an illustration of the “grain of wheat” to show how
this principle works in God’s kingdom. Seeds cannot
produce new life by themselves. They must first be
planted in the earth before they can grow and produce
fruit. What is the spiritual analogy which Jesus alludes
to? Is this simply a veiled reference to his own impending death on the cross and resurrection? Or does Jesus
have another kind of "death and rebirth" in mind for his
disciples? Jesus, no doubt, had both meanings in mind.
Jesus’ obedience and death on the cross obtain for us
freedom and new life in the Holy Spirit. His cross frees us
from the tyranny of sin and death and shows us the way
of perfect love. www.rc.net
Adult Question for Discussion: When and in what
way have you seen life come from death?
Children’s Question for Discussion: When have
you felt stronger because you sacrificed something
for a friend or member of your family?
Palm Sunday of the Passion of the Lord
March 29, 2015
Is 50:4-7
Phil 2:6-11
Ps 22:8-9, 17-18, 19-20, 23-24
Mk 14:1-15:47
Jesus, humbling himself out of love for us, did not
shield his face from buffet and spitting, but offered
his life on the cross. He relied on his Father’s love.
Adult Question for Discussion: When have you
found it hardest to accept God’s will? What
enabled you to accept it?
Children’s Question for Discussion: When is it
hardest for you to obey?

As we near the end of Lent, please consider a<ending the following events:
This Friday, March 27th, the K of C will prepare dinner from 5pm-7pm. They’ll have fish, soup, cheese pizza and
many other wonderful dishes. But the food is not all--the fellowship that our parishioners share is energizing!
A>er dinner Friday, head over to church. We’ll be presen6ng the Sta6ons of the Cross from different viewpoints. March 27th, we’ll see the sta6ons of the cross OUTSIDE!
March 22nd, and March 29th, Fr. Tim leads a 3-part series en6tled, “Climbing the Mountain Through the Seven
Deadly Sins” following 5pm Benedic6on in Church.
St. Malachy Spirit of Service Dinner
Our first annual dinner to celebrate and acknowledge the many services our parishioners provide our parish will
be held Saturday, October 10, 2015 in the school gym a>er the 5:30 PM Mass. All parishioners are invited to
aEend. More details will be forthcoming as the date approaches.
So why announce it now, because we need your help. All of us working together provide the hands to do God’s
work through our various ministries and ac6vi6es, but a few parishioners’ efforts stand out for their significant
contribu6on and dedica6on. We need you to iden6fy those individuals whose contribu6on of 6me and talent
make St. Malachy a great parish. We would like to recognize those individuals at our parish dinner and collec6vely say “thank you” for all you do.
For now, start thinking about who you might recommend and why. Most o>en you will not
find them in the spotlight, that’s not why they serve, but that is why we need your help. We
will tell you how to submit your nomina6ons soon.
Thank you,
Your Pastoral Council

GOOD FRIDAY TENEBRAE SERVICE
"In the Shadow of the Cross"
The Gospels paint a vivid picture of the events leading up to the death and resurrection of Jesus. From his
triumphant entry into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, to his burial in the tomb, this Tenebrae service is an
opportunity to reflect on the last poignant moments of Jesus’ earthly life. Join us as we retell this story
through a series of readings and choral hymns. With each step of the journey, a candle is extinguished, until
the church is plunged into a darkness symbolic of Jesus’ three days in the tomb. The next light to enter the
church will be the Paschal candle at the Easter Vigil. The Tenebrae Service will be held on Good Friday, April
3rd, at 9:00 PM and it will last approximately 45 minutes. Childcare will be provided.
