Fr Ivo, You take such a simple story of an unassuming mystic and rebel, a story of love, selflessness and hope for mankind and turn it into a highbrow and organized religious credo of tridiuum, paschal, Eucharist, parabolic, salvific, Johannine, agappan and other Roman and Hebrew mumbo-jumbo.
None of this mumbo-jumbo helped the ones who knew it, but chose to ignore it when entrusted with innocent young souls in their care. Nor did it help those in charge of them who should have poured the wrath of God on their unholy transgressions or at the very least let them loose them into the public legal system. God may forgive but we sinners find it difficult to do so. Roland. Toronto. MAUNDY THURSDAY *Fr.Ivo da Conceição Souza We are celebrating the Holy Triduum. It is the greatest event for the Christian community all over the world, since it is the celebration of the Paschal Mystery: Suffering, Death and Resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth.
