Man of Sorrows, Lord of Joy
Addressing thousands of pilgrims gathered for his general audience on March 27, Pope John Paul II urged the faithful to relive the Easter Triduum intensely.
“During the Easter Triduum, we will gaze more intensely on Christ's face, a face full of agony and suffering,” the Holy Father said. He noted that this will help us better understand the suffering that afflicts so many men, women and children throughout the world today. However, Christ's face, “resplendent with life, open up our lives to renewed hope,” the Holy Father said.
