The Last Supper
JUANES, JUAN DE (VICENTE JUAN MASIP)

The Triduum is one seamless liturgy spread out over three days, culminating in the Resurrection of our
Lord on the Holy Night of Easter. We celebrate his resurrection at the Easter Vigil because the scriptures
tell us that early in the morning on the first day of the week Mary Magdalene went to the tomb and found
it open and empty. Thus, we know that Jesus resurrected some time during the night.
We begin with Maundy Thursday, also known as Holy Thursday, and the Mass of the Lord’s Sup-
per. Maundy is the traditional name of this night, a derivation of the word mandatum, refering to the
command of Jesus that, before we celebrate Eucharist, we must look to serve one another. This Mass re-
counts Jesus’ washing of the Apostle’s feet and his Institution of the Holy Eucharist. On this night we also
process with the Holy Oils, blessed this Tuesday by Bishop Vasquez, to be used throughout the year by the
priests. Mass concludes with no final blessing as the liturgy continues throughout the night with the
Blessed Sacrament held in vigil at the Altar of Repose.
Fasting, prayer, and Solemn Veneration of the Cross mark the day of our Lord’s Passion: Good Friday. The
Church is stripped of everything that offers comfort as a sign of Christ’s forsakenness offered for our sins
on the cross. It is the wood of the cross that we venerate this day with either a simple touch or kiss. The
Triduum continues with our leaving the church in complete silence to contemplate the profound meaning
of the day.
Holy Saturday has always been the most solemn night of the church’s year; a night of waiting in darkness
at the tomb of Christ. We mark this vigil with readings from scripture which chronicle Salvation History.
This is the night we officially welcome into the Church the Catechumens who have been in formation for
a year. We do this by celebrating with them the Sacraments of Initiation: Baptism, Confirmation, and Ho-
ly Communion.

Choir sings, then all sing after Psalm verses
O God, be gracious and bless us *
and let your face shed its light upon us.
So will your ways be known upon earth *
and all nations learn your salvation. (to antiphon)
Let the peoples praise you, O God, *
let all the peoples praise you.
Let the nations be glad and shout for joy,
with uprightness you rule the peoples; *
you guide the nations on earth. (to antiphon)
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, *
and to the Holy Spirit
As it was in the beginning, is now, *
and ever shall be, world without end. Amen. (to antiphon)
