Nazareth Catholic Community
Holy Week 2019
Holy Thursday ~ Good Friday ~ Easter
Holy Week Greetings,
The Nazareth College Catholic Community Holy Week and Easter service schedule is as follows:
Holy Thursday, 4/18: Mass of the Lord’s Supper at 8:00PM, Linehan Chapel
This liturgy remembers the Passover meal of the Jewish people and the Last Supper of Jesus. It also includes the moving ritual of the washing of the feet which imitates Jesus' own action as recorded in John 13:1. It concludes with a procession with the Eucharistic sacrament to a side altar of repose, and a period of private prayer.
Good Friday, 4/19: Liturgy of the Lord’s Passion at 12:30PM, Linehan Chapel
Chapel open all day for private prayer.
This liturgy includes the passion according to John, the veneration of the wood of the cross, and holy communion. This stark but moving liturgy allows us to meditate on the meaning of Christ’s crucifixion and death as the great act of love and reconciliation for us.
Holy Saturday, 4/20: Please meet at GAC 151 at 7:30PM, we will be attending the vigil Mass at St. Louis in Pittsford. Please RSVP below.
This liturgy begins after nightfall and celebrates the resurrection of Christ by the lighting of the new fire and the blessing and lighting of the Easter candle.
Easter Sunday, April 21: Mass at 7:00PM, Linehan Chapel
We proclaim the resurrection of Christ from the dead and celebrate the hope and promise of Easter.
