From March 24th to March 31st, the Church throughout the world celebrates another Holy Week. This period is a time the Church gives us to walk with Jesus in his pain and suffering, aiming for the Lord's Easter.
The invitation is for each faithful and devotee to actively participate in the celebrations in their parish of origin. If this is not possible, the Padre Eustáquio Channel on YouTube will broadcast all the celebrations scheduled in the Church's liturgy for this most important moment of our faith.
The broadcasts will follow part of the programming of the Sanctuary of Health and Peace in Belo Horizonte, a place known as the Church of Father Eustáquio. Stay tuned and participate with us:
