Jesus taught the people using this story: “A man once planted a vineyard, then leased it out to tenants. Then he left to go abroad and was away for a long time. At harvest time, the owner sent one of his servants to the tenants to collect the landowner’s share of the harvest, but the tenants sent him away, beaten and empty-handed. So the owner dispatched another one of his servants to collect his portion, but the tenants treated him the same way. They cursed him, beat him, and sent him away empty-handed. Then the owner sent a third servant, but they brutalized him also with the same treatment. Finally the owner of the vineyard said to his son, ‘Perhaps if I send you, my own cherished son, they will be ashamed of what they’ve done.’

Every year, believers come together for a weeklong celebration of the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. From Palm Sunday to Resurrection Sunday, let us reflect on how God demonstrated His love for humanity by sending His Son to die on the cross and bring us to a place of grace and love, enabling us to live a life marked by Christ’s triumph.
Holy Week is the most important time of the year for Christians. It’s when we remember Jesus’ last days on earth—His suffering, death, and resurrection. This week is a chance to slow down, reflect, and focus on what Jesus did for us.
