Holy Week

Holy Week is a significant period in the Christian liturgical calendar that commemorates the final week of Jesus Christ’s earthly life. It begins with Palm Sunday, celebrating Jesus’ triumphant entry into Jerusalem. It includes Maundy Thursday, which recalls the Last Supper, and Good Friday, marking Jesus’ crucifixion and death. Holy Week culminates in Easter Sunday, celebrating Jesus’ resurrection and victory over death. Observances vary among Christian traditions but generally involve special prayers, processions, and reflection on themes of sacrifice, redemption, and renewal. Holy Week offers believers a profound opportunity to meditate on the core events of their faith.
