Exult, let them exult, the hosts of heaven, exult, let Angel ministers of God exult, let the trumpet of salvation sound aloud our mighty King’s triumph!

Dearest Mother Mary, on that first Holy Saturday, you kept vigil for your Son. You allowed the divine gift of hope to grow within you, and you allowed that hope to be your strength in the midst of the horror of the Cross. Pray for me that I may ponder your beautiful heart this day so that I, too, may be filled with hope as I endure the challenges of this earthly life. Give me a heart of joyful anticipation as I await the grace of new life our Lord so deeply desires to bestow upon me. Mother Mary, pray for me. Jesus, I do trust in You.

Standing by the cross of Jesus were his mother and his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary of Magdala. When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple there whom he loved he said to his mother, “Woman, behold, your son.” Then he said to the disciple, “Behold, your mother.” And from that hour the disciple took her into his home. John 19:25–27

This Evening Mass of the Lord’s Supper begins the Sacred Paschal Triduum, three days in which we celebrate the greatest mysteries of our redemption. In the liturgies of the Paschal Triduum, we celebrate the memorial of Our Lord crucified, buried, and risen. Tonight we recall the Last Supper in which, on the night He was betrayed, Jesus instituted the sacraments of the Holy Eucharist and the priesthood. We also recall Our Lord’s commandment of love and His own humble love and service in washing the feet of the twelve apostles, reminding us that Jesus came (as He said) “not to be served, but to serve.”

We warmly invite you to join us for the most significant week in our Catholic Faith—Holy Week. This sacred time, filled with reverence and reflection, encompasses the final eight days of Jesus’ life, beginning with Palm Sunday and culminating in the joyous celebration of Easter Sunday. Holy Week offers us profound wisdom, insight, and inspiration, as we partake in the events that shaped our salvation. Each day is an opportunity for deep spiritual growth and connection with our Lord. Join us as we journey together through the various liturgies and ceremonies that honor this holy time. Let us come together in prayer, reflection, and community to celebrate the love and sacrifice of Jesus. We look forward to sharing this meaningful week with all of you in faith and fellowship.

This Sunday is Palm Sunday, and thus we begin the most solemn week in the Christian year. During this week we will commemorate once more the saving mysteries of our redemption: the Passion, Death, and Resurrection of Our Lord Jesus Christ. The Church’s Liturgy is always a great teacher but never more so than during this week. Having been renewed by the graces of Lent, we invite you to make this coming week truly holy by participating fully in the various liturgies which are so rich in content. The entire schedule is available on our website
