Holy Week
The three last days of Holy Week are often called the Sacred Triduum. This period may be considered from a threefold viewpoint: 1. These days bring to a climax and to a conclusion our preparation for Easter. 2. But these three days are already a part of Easter; for there is an inseparable union between the Death and Resurrection of Christthe two together constitute the Easter mystery. 3. These three days may, nevertheless, be regarded as a unit in themselves, a true triduum or trilogy, a three-art drama on Christ's redemptive work. Excerpted from The Church's Year of Grace by Pius Parsch

Thanks for running these threads. Wifey doesn’t FReep (other than lurk the threads), but she is a very devout Catholic and loved your thread from last week.

I attended our diocese’s Chrism Mass today. I don’t think I have ever been to one before. It was 2 hours long, and quite the event. I’ve never seen that many people in the Cathedral before. The singing was amazing, and we have a wonderful bishop.
