2025 Holy Week Celebration: Tuesday Reflection

This reflection for Tuesday of Holy Week invites us to explore the call to lay down our lives for Jesus by standing in solidarity with others, particularly the poor, the suffering, and the marginalised. Drawing from John 13: 21–38, the meditation contrasts Judas’s betrayal and Peter’s denial with the ultimate transformation of Peter’s life into one of sacrificial leadership. Inspired by Christ’s question—“Will you lay down your life for me?”— the reflection challenges readers to act selflessly, defend justice, and live out the Gospel through concrete love for neighbour. It is a timely reminder to journey closely with the suffering Christ throughout Holy Week.
