All of these things took place on the holy days that we’ll celebrate later this week. Jesus was forced to carry His cross up a hill, and then He was hung on it until He died. People who were once nice to Him changed their minds and decided to be mean to Him instead. And they sentenced Him to death even though He never did that.īefore Jesus died, He suffered very much. Blasphemy is when you tell lies or say bad things about God. They decided to lie and say that Jesus committed blasphemy. They tried to find a reason to put Jesus to death as a punishment even though He had done nothing wrong. Next, Jesus is arrested and questioned by the high priest. But each time He asks, He says to the Father, “Your will be done, not Mine”.

He wants the Father to take away His suffering and death. This is the very first Mass where bread and wine became Jesus’ body and blood.Īfter they eat, they go to a garden where Jesus prays to God the Father. Next, Jesus celebrates the Last Supper with all of His twelve apostles.

He tells the chief priest that he will help them arrest Jesus if they give him money. He did this to save us from sin so that we can all go to heaven.įirst, one of Jesus’ apostles, named Judas, does something very bad. The Passion of Christ is what we call it when Jesus suffered and died for our sins. In today’s Gospel, we hear the entire story of Jesus’ Passion. This week, we hear the entire story of Jesus’ Passion and death as we prepare our hearts for Easter.
