Spy Wednesday and Our Priests

Yesterday (the Wednesday of Holy Week) has come to be known as Spy Wednesday because it is the day when Judas met with the leaders of the Temple and offered to hand Jesus over to them (see yesterday’s Gospel reading, Matthew 26:14-25).

Remembering that Judas was one of the Church’s first priests, Monsignor Charles Pope has written a thoughtful reflection on Spy Wednesday and the sins and weaknesses of members of the clergy. He also wrote about the great need to pray for our priests.
