I should clarify that the name of my blog has nothing to do with my status Catholic Christian. That's just a jazzy name and nothing else.
And as is customary in this blog, Easter can not ignore.
Easter represents the most intense and significant moment for the Christian world, for Catholics in particular. It is the opportunity for all with faith and devotion to celebrate the passion, death and resurrection of Jesus, central facts of our faith that, once again, are herein updated in the long run these 2008 years of history.
My country Chile in conjunction with the rest of Latin America is predominantly Catholic. However, it is sad that when approaching the celebration of Easter, for many Catholics has become just a chance to rest and recreation.
I will not delve on the meaning that this week is, but many "Catholics" forget the essential: this week we devote to prayer and reflection on the mysteries of the Passion and Death of Jesus to take all the thanks that this brings.
Holy Week begins with Palm Sunday celebrates Jesus' entry into Jerusalem and ends with Easter Sunday or Easter.
The timing of Easter is different every year, because on Good Friday must be the Friday after the first full moon of spring. Therefore be held as early as this March 21 or as late as 23 April.
If someone wants to deepen and understand more the meaning of Easter, I invite you to read what was posted in April 2006
