Holy Thursday 2009
posted by Jason and Darcy
On Holy Thursday night, the Paschal Triduum begins. It is one long Mass that continues through the Good Friday service and concludes with the end of the Easter Vigil.
During the Holy Thursday Mass, a jubilant Gloria is sung, for the first time since Lent began, and the last time until the Easter Vigil. The bells are rung ecstatically for the last time until the Easter Vigil. After the homily, 12 men representing the 12 apostles have their feet washed by the priest, who represents Jesus. Following Communion, a Eucharistic procession takes place and the Eucharist is reposed in a special location for the night watch adoration. It concludes with night prayer at midnight.
