DESCRIPTION:The Holy Week services\, from Palm Sunday to Easter Day\, are 
 quite unlike anything else in the church’s calendar. For once we are not
  spectators: instead we are here to take our part in the events around us.
  We are the people of Israel\, waving our branches of palm and shouting Ho
 sanna to the Son of David. We are the disciples\, eating and drinking at t
 hat solemn and mysterious last supper in the Upper Room. With St Mary and 
 St John\, we watch in shock and despair at the death of Jesus on the Cross
 . And\, with Mary Magdalene\, we see an open tomb and\, singing Alleluia\,
  we run to tell our friends the glorious news of Christ's resurrection.\n\
 nThe week begins with Palm Sunday. we gather tomorrow morning at the Engli
 sh Cemetery gates for the blessing and procession of palms to begin at 11:
 30. (If the weather is inclement we will gather in the church). We process
  to the church to symbolise our Lord's entry into Jerusalem. Together with
  the people of Israel\, we have followed Jesus and been amazed as he has p
 erformed his miracles and pulled the crowds. And as he dramatically enters
  Jerusalem\, on a donkey\, we bathe in the sunlight of the superstar and w
 ave our palm branches to welcome him. You are welcome to bring your own br
 anch of something suitable.\n\nBut the people who will crucify Jesus on Go
 od Friday are the same people who honour him today. They don't crucify an 
 unknown or a stranger. They crucify a man who had extended to them a love\
 , a dignity and a majesty. Today they shout\, ‘Hosanna to the king’\, 
 and on Friday they will shout\, ‘we have no king but Caesar’. \n\nWhy?
  Because we human beings are fickle\, we change our minds\, we are swayed 
 by others - because we are made up of a mixture of different people and di
 fferent feelings. And because of that thing inside us which makes it so di
 fficult to receive unrestrained\, unlimited\, boundless and undemanding lo
 ve.\n\nTo see 'Holy Week in 3 minutes'\, a video by the Catholic media age
