"The Sunday of the Passion: Palm Sunday"

The Liturgy of the Palms, with its triumphal procession, modulates into a penitential Eucharist dominated by the solemn proclamation of the passion gospel.

MAUNDY THURSDAY

Thursday, March 28 7pm

‘Maundy’ is derived from the latin ‘mandatum’ which means basically “commandment.”

Thursday night of Holy Week corresponds to the Last Supper, it includes Jesus saying, “A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another as I have loved you.”

Maundy Thursday services traditionally include a focus on the Last Supper, not only as the beginning of the Triduum (the Great Three Days), but also as the institution of the Lord’s Supper, Eucharist, Communion. In many places, a foot washing service is included, and the service often ends with the Stripping of the Altar.

Alleluia!
Christ is Risen!
