Easter Vigil 2021 During this Vigil in anticipation of Our Lord’s Resurrection at midnight we begin outside in the darkness by lighting the Paschal Fire. Then we carry the Light of the World in through His Candle which is praised in the exquisite praeconium called the Exsultet. Prophetic readings and the Litany of the Saints…
Good Friday 2020 From ancient times the faithful gathered around the Cross on this day to commemorate Our Lord’s Passion and Death which He offered to teach us the terrible evil of sin and His infinite love for us. Our hearts are moved in the opening of the liturgy by the unfolding of the prophecies…
Holy Thursday 2021 St. Paul warns us in the Epistle not to abuse Our Lord by receiving Him sacrilegiously in Holy Communion. This is especially so because the Holy Eucharist is the greatest gift God has given us and the sign of His love for us. To betray this love is like the kiss of…
Palm Sunday 2020 Holy Week begins with Our Lord’s triumphal entrance into His city, Jerusalem. The outpouring of fervor by the pilgrims there for the Passover was increased by the recent raising of Lazarus from the dead. The city, which did not welcome Him when the Magi came and announced His birth, did so now…

Good Friday 2020 The Church mourns the death of God in an even more dramatic way this year. The Solemn Liturgical Action expresses this loss through the Passion of St. John and the two prophecies. Then we join with Christ on the Cross for His universal prayers for all. We venerate our means of salvation…
Holy Thursday 2020 We celebrate the anniversaries of the institution of the sacrifice of the Holy Mass and the sacraments of the Holy Eucharist and Holy Orders today. The Mass is the central act and purpose for the Church which Christ commanded at the Last Supper to be offered and from it flows Our Lord’s…
Palm Sunday 2020 While unable to attend Mass, we must be more devout at home, especially by practicing spiritual communion. The Indwelling of the Blessed Trinity and the action of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost in our souls will inspire us. That type of inspiration is what moved the people in Jerusalem to proclaim…
