My Dear Parishioners,
Today is Palm Sunday, the beginning of the holiest week of our church year. This is the week we celebrate what we call the Triduum: Holy Thursday, Good Friday, and Holy Saturday. These celebrations are truly the heart of Christianity and an intense immersion into the root mystery of what it is to be a Christian.
On Holy Thursday, we hear the story of the Lord's Last Supper. During the Mass, the Holy Oils, which were blessed by our Archbishop at the Cathedral, are received by our parish community. These oils are then shared during the year in the Sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation, and the Anointing of the Sick. During the Mass we are reminded of the modelling of Jesus when the priests wash the feet of people in our congregation.
On Good Friday, we celebrate the suffering, crucifixion, and death of Jesus by recalling our story and, following the tradition of thousands of years, we venerate the Holy Cross. This is the only day of the year when Holy Mass is not celebrated.
On Holy Saturday the Church is, as it were, at the Lord's tomb, meditating on his passion and death, and awaiting his resurrection with prayer and fasting.
We invite you to join us for the Triduum and Easter services this year. It is in our reliving and remembering that we are reborn.
