Special Days
Apr 5: Observance - Palm Sunday
Palm Sunday, also known as Passion Sunday, marks the beginning of the Christian Holy Week leading to Easter. On this day, Jesus entered Jerusalem and was acclaimed as a king.
Apr 9: Observance - Maundy Thursday
Observance of the Last Supper when Jesus gave the commandment (maundatum) "To love one another".
Apr 9: Observance - St. Patronage of Saint Joseph
Saint Joseph, the spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary and foster father of our blessed Lord was a descendant of King David. This fulfills the prophecy that the Messiah would come from the house of David. In his faithful loving care was entrusted the childhood and youth of the Redeemer of the World.
A model for fathers, Saint Joseph is invoked as a protector of the family. A carpenter by trade, he has been declared the patron saint of all working people, of craftsmen and of the poor.
Apr 10: Observance - Good (Holy) Friday
The day on which the death of Christ is remembered. It commemorates the Crucifixion, which is retold from the Gospel according to St. John.
Apr 25: Observance - St. Mark the Evangelist
Mark is traditionally believed to be the author of the Gospel of Mark, and a companion of Saint Peter.
A number of traditions have built up around Mark, though none can be verified from the New Testament. It is suggested that Mark was one of the servants at the Marriage at Cana who poured out the water that Jesus turned to wine, and also the one who hosted the disciples in his house after the death of Jesus, and into whose house the resurrected Jesus Christ came.
In Egypt, Mark the Evangelist is said to have performed many miracles, and established a church there. It was in Alexandria where Mark met his martyr's death in AD 68.
Apr 30: Observance - St. James the Greater
James is described as one of the first disciples to join Jesus. He is called Saint James the Greater to distinguish him from James, son of Alphaeus, who is also known as James the Less. The Synoptic Gospels state that James and John were with their father by the seashore when Jesus called them to follow him.
James was one of only three apostles whom Jesus selected to bear witness to his Transfiguration. Acts of the Apostles records that Agrippa I had James executed by sword, making him the first of the apostles to be martyred.
