The majority of Christians across the globe refer to the week that begins with Palm Sunday, celebrated yesterday, and ends with Easter Sunday (4 April), as “Holy Week”. During Holy Week we also observe the Tenebrae Service on Maundy Thursday as well as Good Friday worship. The high light always is the joyous celebration of the resurrection of Jesus on Easter Sunday.
We know that the word “holy” means that something belongs to God. It tells us that this week is set apart for God, to remember, contemplate and celebrate the central truth of the gospel, that only Jesus Christ, the Son of God, saved us from our sins by his atoning death and victorious resurrection.
May all our readers be blessed, encouraged and equipped to live the Christian life to the full, when we participate in the worship of God and celebrate Jesus Christ, during Holy Week 2010!
