We introduce the holy oils. We wash each other’s feet. We remember the Last Supper. We walk with Jesus and join with him in this hour of agony in the garden.
Good Friday: Veneration of the Cross | Apr 18 | 1:00-3:00 PM
We open the church for quiet reflection and prayer with a specific focus on the hours of Jesus’ agony and death on the cross.
Good Friday: The Lord’s Passion | Apr 18 | 7:00 PM
We enter and exit in silence for this very solemn celebration. We proclaim the Lord’s passion and death. We venerate the cross. In hope, we introduce, adorn and bless a new Pascal Candle.
Holy Saturday: The Easter Vigil | Apr 19 | 8:00 PM
We begin the holiest night of the year at sundown with an Easter fire. We light the Pascal Candle. We sing the Easter proclamation. We proclaim the history of salvation in Scripture, beautiful images and glorious song. We sing “Alleluia” to introduce the gospel of Jesus’ resurrection.
Easter Sunday | Apr 20 | 9:30 AM
Easter Sunday proclaims Jesus’ resurrection. We begin the Octave of Easter and celebrate Jesus’ resurrection for eight straight days.
