Holy Week/Easter Schedule
“He humbled himself, becoming obedient to death, even death on a cross.” – Philippians 2:8
3rd Sunday of Lent
03-08-2026 | Fr. Antony ArockiadosDear Family!
As we get closer to the paschal mystery of the suffering, death and Resurrection of Jesus, we accompany Jesus to ‘the well’ in Samaria (last Sunday to the Mount of Transfiguration, previously to the Desert). Only John writes about this event in his gospel. Here, Jesus travels to Samaria which is not so welcoming of Jews. Even with all the difficult history between Jews and Samaritans, Jesus breaks two important social laws: A Jew talking to an unknown woman, A Jew inviting a contact with Samaritans.
