Holy Week

Today is Palm Sunday, the beginning of Holy Week. Over the next seven days we are invited to be with the Lord as He suffers, dies and rises again. This is not simply a re-enactment or remembering of His acts. Rather, as we celebrate the liturgy we live through these events with the Lord and He makes the benefits of His sacrifice present for us. The most important celebration of the week is the Paschal Triduum (Maundy Thursday 7:30pm, Good Friday 3pm and Holy Saturday 9pm). A full list of Holy Week times can be found in pdf format here.
