Fifth Sunday of Lent: Jesus Speaks the Power of the Cross

JESUS SPEAKS OF THE POWER OF THE CROSS
GOSPEL Jn 12:20–33
FIFTH SUNDAY OF LENT

I look at your cross, O Christ, and I read there the song of your love.”—St. John of the Cross

Take the crucifix off the wall, or the one on your rosary, hold it in your hands and bring to Christ the suffering of the world: the Covid victims, the poor and powerless, the victims of racism, domestic violence, human trafficking,  the dying, the homeless, and send out intercessions of love and hope. Then bring to Christ all in this world who have power to bring about equality, justice and compassion, and pray for them, too.
