  <description>&lt;p&gt;Homily from Palm Sunday of the Lord's Passion.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Jesus has not removed suffering from our lives, He has redeemed the suffering in our lives.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Jesus accomplished the Father’s will in His passion, death, and resurrection. His mission of salvation is “finished.” And yet, Christ’s Body on earth still lives out the mission of Her Head: we are called to unite our sufferings to His for the salvation of the world. And this work — the work He has entrusted to us — remains unfinished.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;dl&gt;
&lt;dt&gt; Mass Readings from April 5, 2020:&lt;/dt&gt;
&lt;dt&gt; Isaiah 50:4-7&lt;/dt&gt;
&lt;dt&gt; Psalms 22:8-9, 17-18, 19-20, 23-24&lt;/dt&gt;
&lt;dt&gt;Philippians 2:6-11&lt;/dt&gt; &lt;p&gt;Matthew 26:14-27:66&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://bulldogcatholic.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/un-done-unfinished.pdf"&gt;Download the Homily Study&lt;/a&gt;
