HOLY WEEK SCHEDULE
Greeting all of you with the compassion of our Lord Jesus Christ!
This is my first year at St. Martin de Porres celebrating the Holy Week but without your presence. My anticipated experience will be like Jesus Christ in the Garden of Gethsemane. However, we are called to be faithful and be vigilant with our Lord Jesus Christ. I would like to inform you of our Holy Week schedule. The liturgy of the Holy Week will be live-streamed so that we can participate together as a parish. I humbly ask that you and/or your families set aside the following schedule time to participate in the most important liturgy of the whole year. You may prepare a sacred altar at home with a Crucifix and images of the Lord and your favorite saints and even dress up as if you were attending Sunday Mass in person.April 5: Palm Sunday
- Blessing of Palms: We will bless the palms and place them in the adoration chapel for you to pick up at your convenience.
April 7: Chrism Mass- 10: 30AM at St. Mary Cathedral.
