Monday in Holy Week




















Judica, Domine, nocentes me expugna impugnantes me: apprehende arma et scutum, et exsurge in adjotorium meum, Domine, virtus salutis meae.

Palm Sunday











As the Church moves towards the celebration of Holy Week, the question in all of our hearts might well be "Where is my Jerusalem?" Are we entering a time/place that will challenge us to the moment of decision making?

It is worth taking a moment to look for the limits of our fidelity.

Hosanna Filio David: benedictus qui venit in nomine Domini. O Rex Israel: Hosanna in excelesis.

What does the future hold for you?

I am thinking that I will aim at posting something relating to the content of our syllabus material every now and again and open this up for comment/development. How does this sound?

Welcome to this blog. It springs from an 'idea' and a 'conversation' meeting in my classroom today. I am not sure how it will unfold in practical terms and what use it will be. But the thought is now a reality. Feel free to comment and suggest contributions as you think may be interesting or useful.
