Call 303.964.3804 and ask about this month's move-in special. homeishere.org Around the Archdiocese BY AARON LAMBERT H oly Week is upon us, and we Catholics sure are lucky to have a wealth of ways to truly live out and participate in this most important time of the liturgical year. While it can be tempting to say you're "too busy" to attend a Good Friday lit- urgy or partake in a Way of the Cross procession, consider this: Jesus Christ wasn't "too busy" to be nailed to a cross and die for our salvation. Harsh words, but they're the truth. As any priest will say, there is nothing more important one could do during Holy Week than to truly refl ect and enter into the passion, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The Archdiocese of Denver is home to a variety of events meant to draw the faithful nearer to Christ during this time. The yearly Chrism Mass happens at the Cathedral, St. John Vianney Theological Seminary holds a moving Tenebrae celebration that's open to the public, and parishes have many events of their own. Here are a few ideas if you're looking a deeper Holy Week experience.
