The Ramos Bloc in Plaza de San Pedro Cardinal Leonardo Sandre, who also read the sermon of Pope Francis, was absent for health reasons. In his greatness, the Pope called on the believers to live a sacred week not only carries their cross, but also from those who suffer around them: “Jesus’ passion becomes sympathetic when we have a hand to the person who can no longer.”
Miria Bonella – the Vatican city
The sacred week in the Vatican began with a clear invitation to Pope Francis: to become Cyrone for others, not only with our crosses, but also with those who are closely or even carrying that unknown person who “coincidentally” made us find. Cardinal Leonardo Sandri, his sermon during the Holy Liturgy in Plaza de Saint Pedro, has read an honorary governor of the eastern churches, which head the Eucharist.

He did not say anything, but he did everything: Simon example
There are three main axes of the Pope’s message to start this holy week. In the first place, the Pope highlights the character of Simon de Sirin – the character that appears unexpectedly on the way to the Galilee – unlike Peter, who promised to follow Jesus but denied it, Simon Sirin takes the cross of Christ and carries it: Simon says from Galilee (Peter), but he does not do it. Simon from Sirin does, but he does not say; Between him and Jesus, there is no dialogue, there is no clear word. Between it is only the wood of the crossThe Pope explains.
The cross as met with Christ
Second, the Pope reminds us that the cross, when it reaches the unwanted suffering or suffering, can be transferred to a place of meeting with Christ if it is assumed with love, as happened to Simon de Sirin: “Suronian is forced to bring the cross; it does not help Jesus through condemnation, but with commitment.” The Pope explains, but this forced act soon becomes a confrontation with Jesus and participating in his passion: “In the first person to participate in the passion of the Lord, the cross of Jesus becomes a Simon Cross. The wooden cross, which is supported by the Seronian, is Christ, who bears with the sin of all men.
Be support for the other: Palm SO -SO -alled Sunday Sunday
The third main point of Palm Sunday’s Pope’s message is the invitation not only our cross, but also from others and becomes Cyron for each other: “Let’s follow Simon’s steps now, because he teaches us that Jesus comes to meet everyone, in any situation. (…) Jesus’ passion becomes sympathetic when we have a hand that can no longer, when we raise the person who fell, when we embrace the person who is uncomfortable.”
