A Message From Our Principal
In our Monday prayer service today, we talked about Holy Week. Additionally, we began the discussion of The Seven Last Words of Christ. These are not individual words, but the final seven phrases that our Lord spoke as he hung on the cross. These phrases are taken from the combined accounts of the four Gospels.
A reminder that the Chrism Mass is tomorrow, Tuesday, March 27, 5:30pm, St. Patrick Cathedral. Not only does the Bishop bless the holy oils used for the sacraments, it is also a renewal of vows by all the priests in our diocese.
Holy Thursday – Noon dismissal after Stations of the Cross (4th grade will lead). Stations begin at 11:20am in the Church.
Mass of the Last Supper, 7pm in the Church --- Jesus introduced the Holy Eucharist and the washing of the disciples’ feet, thereby instituting the priesthood.
Good Friday of the Lord’s Passion, 7pm in the Church --- Adoration and veneration of the cross, followed by Holy Communion.
Mass of the Resurrection of the Lord (Easter Vigil), 8pm --- Although celebrated Holy Saturday evening, it is the dramatic Easter vigil liturgy that marks the beginning of Easter. We are awaiting our master's return with our lamps full and burning, so that he will find us awake and seat us at his table (cf. Luke 12:35ff). All Catholics should try to attend this beautiful service. The vigil is divided into four parts: 1) Service of Light; 2) Liturgy of the Word; 3) Liturgy of Baptism; and, 4) Liturgy of the Eucharist.
