| | Holy Week - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | A popular Holy Thursday tradition is the Bisita Iglesia (Church Visit), which involves visiting several Churches at which the faithful commemorate the vigil that the Apostles kept while Jesus prayed in the Garden of Gethsemane. | | | Holy Monday marks the beginning of the Pabasa (literally, reading) or Pasyon, the marathon chanting of the story of Jesus' life, passion, and death, which continues day and night, for as long as two straight days. | | | Believers are encouraged to follow in their prayers with readings from the Gospel the account of each of the actions from the time of the entry of Jesus into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday to the crucifixion and death of Jesus on Good Friday and the resurrection on Easter Sunday. |

| | Holy Unction is a sacrament of faith (Jas 5.14-15). | | | Established by the redeeming action of God, sustained and vivified by the Holy Spirit, the Church at prayer is always being constituted and actualized as the Body of Christ. | | | The sacrament of Holy Unction may have been part of the reception process for lapsed Christians, who were reconciled to the Church through the sacrament of Penance. |

| | Holy Week. Meditations for Palm Sunday, Holy Monday- Wednesday by Marianne Dorman |
| | This Holy Wednesday we have before us two options: the selfless loving and caring of Mary towards her dear Master and Lord, and the selfishness and greed of Judas which makes him use Jesus for his own ends. | | | Holy Monday therefore demands us to examine our lives to see whether they glow with Christ's purity and honesty, and to examine whether we live by Christ's commandments or our own watered down version of them. | | | Holy Week begins and ends with the manifestation of the fickleness of people in contrast to the constancy of our Lord. |
