Episode # 883 - Holy Week Begins

Holy Week has begun, with Palm Sunday being yesterday, Spring is supposed to be here, but an inch of snow is supposed to come, so it seems that Winter and Spring are battleing for dominance here in Chicago.  However, Spring seems to be in the air with everyone and everything.  Tony shares how his birthday went and some fun things perhaps.  Also, the main focus on the start of the show is talking about how Palm Sunday went yesterday and the biggest news for St. Stanislaus Kostka, the Church itself that is, is that the new pews for the Church are in and look great and beautiful in the Church.  With all this in mind, Father Anthony talks again about the Gospel and how everything discussed relates to Palm Sunday and our encounters with God, as well as our relation to him, and dealing with the poor and poverty are brought up along these lines.  After the first break, the Palm Sunday mass is discussed since Holy Week started with it and more is on the way with Easter coming, as well as what the Pope has been talking about and asking the question, "Where are we?"  This also brings up the historical story of Jesus and being our savior.  After the second break, Father Anthony continues his talk about Jesus Christ being "God in the Flesh" and being our savior, seeing how Easter is coming up and he mentions his visit to the Holy City and the prophecy of Zacharia which in turn relates to Pope Francis asking many questions about who we identify with.
