Wednesday of Holy Week

Dear Family of Mary!

From Our Lady of Medjugorje: 

"Dear Children! As I look at you, my heart seizes with pain. Where are you going my children? Have you sunk so deeply into sin that you do not know how to stop yourselves? You justify yourselves with sin and live according to it. Kneel down beneath the Cross and look at my Son. He conquered sin and died so that you, my children, may live. Permit me to help you not to die but to live with my Son forever. Thank you!" (October 2, 2009)

From the Gospel of Matthew: 

One of the Twelve, who was called Judas Iscariot,  

went to the chief priests and said, 

"What are you willing to give me 

if I hand him over to you?" 

They paid him thirty pieces of silver, 

and from that time on he looked for an opportunity to hand him over.

On the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, 

the disciples approached Jesus and said, 

"Where do you want us to prepare 

for you to eat the Passover?" 

He said, 

"Go into the city to a certain man and tell him, 

'The teacher says, "My appointed time draws near;  

in your house I shall celebrate the Passover with my disciples."'" 

The disciples then did as Jesus had ordered, 

and prepared the Passover.

When it was evening, 

he reclined at table with the Twelve. 

And while they were eating, he said,  

"Amen, I say to you, one of you will betray me." 

Deeply distressed at this, 

they began to say to him one after another, 

"Surely it is not I, Lord?" 

He said in reply, 

"He who has dipped his hand into the dish with me 

is the one who will betray me. 

The Son of Man indeed goes, as it is written of him, 

but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed. 

It would be better for that man if he had never been born." 

Then Judas, his betrayer, said in reply, 

"Surely it is not I, Rabbi?" 

He answered, "You have said so." 

(Mt. 26:14-25) 

We adore You, O Christ, and we bless You, because by Your Holy Cross You have redeemed the world.

In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
