Wednesday of Holy Week

Wednesday of Holy Week On Holy Wednesday, the middle of Holy Week, we pause at a crucial turning point. The joy of Palm Sunday has faded, and the shadows of the Passion begin to fall. This is the day when the chief priests and Pharisees plot against Jesus after the raising of Lazarus, Caiaphas prophesies unknowingly of Christ’s mission, and Mary offers her costly oil in an act of love and devotion.
