Dear Friends,

Here's the schedule for the Easter Triduum, the three-day summit of the Catholic liturgical year, celebrating the Paschal Mystery.
It begins with the evening Mass of the Lord’s Supper on Holy Thursday, continues through Good Friday of the Lord’s Passion, and concludes with the evening prayer on Easter Sunday, with the Easter Vigil as its peak.

It is highly encouraged for Catholics to participate in the Triduum Liturgy to intimately enter into Christ's sacrifice and witness His great love for us. For additional information, please visit the USCCB website: https://www.usccb.org/prayer-worship/liturgical-year/triduum

As we journey through these holy days, may God give us profound insight and understanding to prepare our hearts for the joyful celebration of the Paschal mystery of our salvation.

*Please be advised that there will be no 9 AM Mass from Holy Thursday through Saturday.

About six months ago, our chapel was beautifully renovated ⛪✨ What was once familiar has been lovingly renewed, with every detail arranged to foster prayer, silence, and deeper adoration of Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament.

This renewal also comes during the holy season of Lent, when the Lord calls each of us to interior renovation. Just as stones and walls have been reconstructed to elevate the sacred space, so Christ desires to restore our hearts through prayer, sacrifice, and charity to enter more deeply into the mystery of His presence in our lives.

As we journey through Lent, may we allow the Lord to renew us from within so that, transformed and joyful, we may celebrate the glory of Easter!
