I grew up with the idea that Holy Week is Holy Week, a time of silence and prayer. For me, during the Easter Triduum (Holy Thursday-Saturday), it is not vacation time, work, or a regular week.
Holy Week is a time to reflect and connect with the true reason for the passion and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Don't miss the gift of Holy Week!
Palm Sunday
Begin your celebration
of the triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem going to Mass. If you can go you
can celebrate it at home.
• Put a small statue of
Jesus in the center of your dinner table.
• Remember, we begin the Most Important Week on our Liturgical Calendar.
Holy Week Preparation
Days: Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday
• Think of spring
housekeeping as a prayerful preparation for Easter in the same way
that Jewish families clean in preparation for Passover.
• Separate cloths, toys or can foods to
donate to any charity.
Holy Thursday
This day recalls
the Last Supper when Jesus washed the feet of his disciples.
It reminds us that we are called to serve one another. Let’s pray the Luminous Mysteries.
Good Friday
This day commemorates
the crucifixion, death and burial of Jesus. It is the most solemn
and sorrowful day of the Church calendar. Let’s
pray the Stations of the Cross.
Holy Saturday
This day commemorates
the time of darkness and waiting when Jesus was in the tomb. It
is also a day for final preparations before Easter. Read the Bible.
Easter Sunday
Celebrate the risen Lord
at Mass with the singing
of the Gloria and alleluias, the renewal of baptismal vows, a sprinkling with
Easter water and receiving the Eucharist.
Don’t
miss this special Easter Mass.
The time you spend on
your Holy Week preparations will make Easter Sunday more meaningful for the
whole family.
Don't miss out on the gift of Holy Week!
¡Semana Santa es Semana Santa!
Crecí con la idea de que la Semana Santa es la Semana Santa, un tiempo de silencio y oración. Para mi, durante el Triduo Pascual (Jueves-Sábado Santos), no es tiempo de vacaciones, trabajo, o una semana regular. La Semana Santa es tiempo para reflexionar y conectar con la verdadera razón de la pasión y resurrección de Jesucristo.
¡No dejes escapar el regalo de la Semana Santa!
