Holy Week meaning ~ Significado Semana Santa

Holy Week is Holy Week! I grew up with that idea. It was a time of silence and prayer especially during the Paschal Triduum.  For me, it’s difficult to connect with work or daily activities just as a regular week. Holy Week it’s time to reflect and connect with the real reason of the passion and resurrection of Jesus.

Easter Season

By Maritza Martinez Mejia @2018

The cross

The empty tomb

Real symbols

What is this about?

A sacrifice

A miracle

A reminder…

All the immense love

A God

A Man

A Spirit

What a mystery!

HAPPY EASTER!

 

Paschal Triduum: Evening of Holy Thursday, Good Friday, Holy Saturday and evening of Easter Sunday.

¡Semana Santa es Semana Santa! Crecí con esa idea. Era un momento de silencio y oración, especialmente durante el Triduo Pascual.  Para mí, es difícil conectarme con el trabajo o actividades diarias, así como si fuera una semana regular. Semana Santa es tiempo para reflexionar y conectar con la verdadera razón de la pasión y resurrección de Jesús.

¡Felices Pascuas!
