Holy Thursday 2nd April

The celebration of the Lord’s Supper is the highlight of Holy Thursday.  We remember and re-enact the Last Supper and the washing of the disciples feet by Jesus. Holy Thursday reminds us of the importance of the Eucharist, and that for Christians the Eucharist and service to others go hand in hand.

8.30-9.30 p.m. Adoration at the Altar of Repose (guided prayer)

Please return Trocaire boxes on Holy Thursday.

Good Friday 3rd April

On Good Friday we celebrate the passion and death of Jesus on the cross.  Jesus chose to bear our burdens and give his life that we might live; live life to the full on this earth and new life in eternity.  If you can, keep this a sacred day and try to attend one of the ceremonies.

3.00 p.m. – Liturgy of the Lord’s Passion

7.30 p.m. – Stations of the Cross

Holy Saturday 4th April

Daytime Holy Saturday is a time of waiting. Our churches are left bare of decoration and no Masses or ceremonies take place. But come the fall of darkness all that changes, because Easter begins; the church is decorated, people assemble, candles are lit, joyful Easter songs are sung, and the Easter Vigil Mass begins. This Easter Vigil Mass is the culmination of Holy Week. The Lord is Risen, he is truly Risen, Alleluia.

9.00 p.m. – Easter Vigil
