Domingo de Ramos em Marlboro ~ Palm Sunday in Marlborough

This was an excellent celebration.  The Brazilian Communities sure know how to celebrate the Triumphant Entry of Jesus into Jerusalem on Palm/Passion Sunday.  I was lucky enough to have been invited to celebrate with this particular community in Marlborough.  It was my second time celebrating there so we were somewhat familiar with one another.  The priest from Brasil, who was attending to their spiritual needs, had to return in January after being here for the time allowed, usually three years.  In the meantime, as they await another priest from "home" they have to put up with visiting priests, like me, who come in when our schedules allow.  The parochial vicar, Fr. Jim, from my parish will be celebrating Mass there on Easter Sunday.  Pray for them that a priest from Brasil comes soon to continue to lead them and attend to their spiritual needs.  Thanks to Hercules Werneck for posting this video on YouTube.  He is a tireless Minister of the Media for the Brazilian Apostolate.
