Holy Thursday, also known as Maundy Thursday, commemorates the events of the Last Supper, where Jesus shared His final meal with His disciples before His crucifixion. On this day, He instituted the Sacrament of the Eucharist, giving His body and blood under the appearance of bread and wine, and commanding His followers to "do this in remembrance of me" (Luke 22:19). This day also highlights the institution of the priesthood, as Jesus, by washing the feet of His disciples, set an example of humility and service, instructing them to love and serve one another. Holy Thursday marks the beginning of the Easter Triduum, a time of reflection on the passion, death, and resurrection of Christ, and is observed with solemn Masses, foot-washing ceremonies, and adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, recalling Christ's sacrificial love for humanity.
Happy Holy Thursday

Praying to Saints and Mary – What Does the Bible Say?
Many Christians question whether praying to Mary and the saints is biblical. Some even claim it’s idolatry. But what does Scripture actually tell us?
1. The Communion of Saints
The Bible shows that those in heaven are alive and aware of what happens on earth. In Revelation 5:8, we see the saints in heaven offering prayers to God:
“The four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each holding a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints.”
If the saints in heaven present our prayers to God, that means they are aware of our needs and can intercede for us, just as we ask fellow Christians to pray for us on earth.
2. Intercessory Prayer is Biblical
When we ask saints or Mary to pray for us, we’re not worshipping them. We’re asking for their intercession—just as Paul asked others to pray for him in 1 Timothy 2:1:
“I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people.”
If asking others to pray for us is acceptable, why would it be wrong to ask the saints in heaven, who are closer to God?
3. Mary’s Special Role
At the wedding at Cana, Mary interceded for the people, leading Jesus to perform His first miracle (John 2:1-11). Jesus listened to her request then, and He still hears her prayers now.
In Luke 1:48, Mary herself prophesied:
“For behold, from now on all generations will call me blessed.”
Honoring Mary and asking for her prayers is part of fulfilling this prophecy.
Debunking Common Objections
• “Jesus is the only mediator!”
1 Timothy 2:5 says, “For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus.”
This means Jesus is the one who reconciles us to God. But just as pastors, friends, and family can pray for us without replacing Jesus, so can the saints.
• “The Bible says not to contact the dead!”
Verses like Deuteronomy 18:10-12 forbid necromancy, which is summoning spirits to gain hidden knowledge. Praying to saints is different—we are asking them to pray for us, not to reveal secrets or replace God’s guidance.
• “Prayer is worship!”
Prayer means “to ask.” Worship involves sacrifice and adoration, which we give only to God. We pray to saints the same way we ask friends to pray for us.
Conclusion
Praying to Mary and the saints is biblical and part of Christian tradition. They don’t replace Jesus but intercede for us, just as the righteous have always prayed for one another.

Why This Matters:
- Catholicism teaches a God who is *intimately knowable, even in His mystery-who lifts us into direct communion* with His very Being.
-whereas The Orthodox Palamite view *locks God away* behind an eternal metaphysical veil. Theosis becomes interaction with what God does, but not union with who God is.
That's not the God of Moses, who said "I AM"*, or of Christ, who said *"Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God."
> + "This is eternal life: that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent." - John 17:3
> *"For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; THEN I SHALL KNOW FULLY, even as I am fully known."*
> - *1 Corinthians 13:12 (RSV-CE)*
### + What This Implies:
"Now... dimly": In this life, our knowledge of God is limited, mediated by faith, symbols, and grace.
"Then... face to face": In glory, we will behold God directly, not merely His effects or energies.
- *"I shall know fully": Paul isn't saying he'll become omniscient, but that his knowledge of God Himself* will be complete in its mode, appropriate to a creature united to God by grace.
This verse *flatly contradicts the Palamite idea that God's essence is forever unknowable even in eternity. Paul speaks of *a future state* where the veil is removed and the soul sees God Himself-face to face.
> As St. John says: *"We shall see Him as He is."* *1 John 3:2*

Easter Sunday is the radiant culmination of the Paschal Triduum, marking the triumphant resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. It is the foundation of Christian faith, for as St. Paul says, “If Christ has not been raised, your faith is vain.” On this holy day, the Church resounds with alleluias, white vestments replace the somber tones of Lent, and the faithful rejoice in the victory of life over death. The empty tomb is not a symbol of loss, but of the greatest hope ever given—the promise that sin and death have been conquered forever through Christ.
This day is not only a remembrance but an invitation. Easter calls every heart to rise with Christ, to cast off the old self and walk in the newness of life. The Resurrection is not a distant event—it is a living reality that touches every soul who believes. Through the waters of baptism, through faith and sacrament, we are united with the Risen Lord. Easter Sunday invites us to live as people of the Resurrection—joyful, hopeful, and transformed.
