2 HOLY TRINITY PARISH The Holy Drama of Holy Week Begins GERMANTOWN & HUDSON, NEW YORK you and your family and friends to come to as many of the events and liturgies during Holy Week as you can. Please do consider inviting family, friends or neighbors who perhaps have not been to Church in some time to come with you. The Church urges us to enter into all these events in our Lord s life, death and resurrection and so to be part of the unfolding drama. That is why we participate in the Masses and liturgies of Holy Week in a special and more dramatic way than usual: carrying palms, being the crowd in the reading of the Gospel, venerating the cross or processing with candles. We are not passive onlookers or spectators on Palm Sunday, or at the Last Supper (Holy Thursday), or as we relive Jesus passion on Good Friday or as we rejoice at the empty tomb on Easter Sunday. We are to be drawn into these life-changing (and world-changing) events. The introduction at the beginning of Mass today puts it so well: This weekend we once again celebrate Palm Sunday, or, to give it the official title Palm Sunday of the Passion of the Lord. It is hard to believe that the season of Lent is coming to a close for another year. How has this Lent been for you.? I do hope that you and your family or friends have experienced some spiritual renewal and refreshment. I hope and pray too that the journey of Lent has given you many opportunities to reflect on your relationship with the Lord, to seek healing and forgiveness from God where this is needed and to make that extra time and effort to let God s grace and love work in you. However Lent has been for us, we now change gear somewhat and focus our attention on Holy Week. Jesus invites us, once again, to journey with him as He enters Jerusalem to suffer, to die and to rise from the dead. It is an intense and moving week. In fact, many of our liturgies this week are unusual and very dramatic. This is quite deliberate and very important! I would like to make a warm and heartfelt invitation to Dear brothers and sisters, since the beginning of Lent until now, we have prepared our hearts by penance and charitable works. Today we gather to herald with the whole Church, the beginning of the celebration of the Lord s Paschal Mystery, that is to say, of His Passion and Resurrection. For it was to accomplish this mystery that He entered His own city of Jerusalem. Therefore, with all faith and devotion, let us commemorate the Lord s entry into the city for our salvation, following in His footsteps, so that, being made by His grace partakers of the Cross, we may have a share also in His resurrection and in His life. Finally, we can remember that we do all this as individuals, of course, but also very much as a community of faith. This is especially true as we celebrate with our catechumens and candidates who are to be fully initiated into the Church at the Easter Vigil. As they receive the sacraments, it can be a great time for us to renew our appreciation of our Baptism, or of the Eucharist, or indeed of all the gifts that God gives to us. So, may you have a truly wonderful and holy Holy Week!

3 The Sacred Paschal Triduum: Three Days, One Great Liturgy Today we celebrate Passion Sunday, otherwise known as Palm Sunday. This is the official beginning of Holy Week. The central event of Holy Week is the celebration of The Sacred Paschal Triduum. The Paschal triduum is the heart of the entire Christian year. The Triduum is made up of three most sacred days: from sundown Holy Thursday to sundown Good Friday (the first day) from sundown Good Friday to sundown Holy Saturday (the second day) from sundown Holy Saturday to sundown Easter Sunday (the third day). The Triduum, or the Three Days is the celebration of the Christian Passover. The most ancient designation for the days on which the church observed the "crucified, buried, and risen Lord" was the "Sacred Triduum" (St. Augustine). The Easter Triduum is really one celebration spread over three days. Each day of the Triduum celebrates the entire mystery of Christ's passion, death and resurrection (Paschal Mystery) while at the same time having its own particular focus. The Holy Thursday focus is the Lord's Supper on the night before he died. Good Friday is the remembrance of the Passion and death of Jesus. Holy Saturday is the vigil at which we hear the good news that Jesus has risen from the grave. Holy Thursday: The Celebration of the Supper of the Lord The entrance antiphon for Holy Thursday sets the tone for the entire Triduum celebration: "We should glory in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, for he is our salvation, our life and our resurrection; through him we are saved and set free" (Gal 6:14). This antiphon has been replaced by hymns expressing similar sentiments. The entrance song of Holy Thursday is the only entrance song for the entire three days (there is no entrance song on Good Friday nor at the Easter Vigil). The focus on Holy Thursday is the Last Supper. Jesus transformed the Jewish Passover meal into a memorial of his death and resurrection. He became the new Passover, the Way to new life in the kingdom of God. When we celebrate this covenant meal we bind ourselves to Jesus as we follow him to death and resurrection. With Jesus, we surrender our own lives for the sake of the world. The washing of feet on Holy Thursday is a stark reminder that those who eat and drink at the Eucharistic table must be ready to wash the feet in service to others. Jesus gave us the command to do what he did. That means do everything Jesus did love others, wash their feet, feed and cloth them, forgive them everything. "As Christ, so must I do!" The liturgy on Holy Thursday does not end with a dismissal or a final blessing. After the solemn procession of the Eucharist, and the altar and sanctuary are stripped in preparation for the liturgy of Good Friday the assembly leaves in silence. It is customary that people remain or return for adoration and prayer late into the evening as they "stay and watch with me." Good Friday: The Celebration of the Passion of the Lord The second major ritual step on the Triduum journey is the liturgy on Good Friday. It has three distinct parts: (1) the Liturgy of the Word. (2) the Veneration of the Cross and (3) Holy Communion. The Good Friday liturgy is not a Mass because there is no Eucharistic Prayer. The intercessions used on Good Friday are an example of one of the oldest elements in the liturgy. Although the liturgy on Good Friday focuses on the death of Jesus, it is not isolated from the fullness of the Paschal mystery. For us, Good Friday is not a time of mourning but, rather, of remembering the boundless love of God expressed in the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross. In the reading of the Passion according to John, Christ's victory over death shines through every step of the way. Death for Jesus was the passage into his glory. As we remember Jesus' death, we live our own dying to selfishness and sin and our passage into new life. The Good Friday liturgy begins in complete silence. There is no music or call to worship. This stark begin-

4 ning reflects the nature of the Triduum as being one extended celebration. The celebrant lies prostrate on the floor before the bare altar and the assembly kneels in humble recognition of the awesome mystery of God's love. After the proclamation of scripture and the extended prayers of the faithful the assembly is invited to venerate the wood of the cross and to receive holy Communion. Again, there is no dismissal at the Good Friday liturgy. The liturgy, which began in silence also ends in silence as we await the Vigil. Easter Vigil: The Celebration of the Resurrection of the Lord The liturgy of the Easter Vigil has four parts with powerful texts and symbols: 1) The Service of Light fire, light, darkness, alpha, omega, procession, incense, and proclamation of the great prayer of praise and thanksgiving called the Exsultet. 2) The Liturgy of the Word creation, test of Abraham, deliverance, flight, freedom, covenant, promised land, new hearts, thirst, water, giving Glory to God, new life in baptism and the Gospel of the Resurrection. 3) The Rites of Initiation calling of candidates. litany of saints, procession to font, blessing of the water, renunciation of sin, profession of faith, baptism, clothing with baptismal garments, giving of lighted candles, Sacred Chrism, confirmation, renewal of baptismal promises by all the faithful, and sprinkling with the blessed water. 4) The Liturgy of the Eucharist bread, wine, the Body and Blood of Christ, a sacred meal with friends. "The Easter Triduum is at the heart and soul of our Christian faith, commemorating the triumph of God's love over darkness and death. It is the fullest ritual expression of what it means to be a Christian. In our reliving and remembering these events, we are renewed and reborn along with the newly initiated members of our community." (The Easier Triduum by Dan Schutte published Oregon Catholic Press.) Please come and celebrate the Sacred Triduum with our parish family.

HUDSON Regular Offertory Last Weekend (Apr. 2) $6, Heat and Fuel..... $ Easter Flowers $ Seminarian Support... $ GERMANTOWN by Bud Ozar The cruel death of Jesus tells us bad things can and do happen to very good people. It also tells us God is present during the suffering. Bad things happen but God does not abandon us. Regular Offertory Last Weekend (Apr. 2) $1, Heat and Fuel..... $ 5.00 Easter Flowers $ 5.00 Seminarian Support... $ Reflections on today s Scriptures Palm Sunday of the Passion of the Lord Then Peter remembered the word that Jesus had spoken: Before the cock crows you will deny me three times. He went out and began to weep bitterly. Today s Gospel traces two tales of betrayal and remorse. At the Last Supper, Peter pledges his fidelity to Christ. He sincerely cannot imagine himself denying Jesus. Judas, on the other hand, is a liar who professes loyalty while knowing that he has already betrayed the Lord. Both men come to regret their actions. But their responses are different. Peter recognizes his failure, feels the bitterness of his actions, and weeps over them. Judas, however, does not weep. He tries to undo his action, and when he can t, he gives up hope. Although Peter felt the weight of his sins, he did not give up. He got up after he fell and moved forward, remaining a loyal disciple, if an imperfect one. He learned from his mistake and, through his eventual martyrdom, fulfilled his promise to die for Christ. Judas of course could have reconciled with the Lord as well. Even at the moment of betrayal, Jesus extended his mercy by calling Judas, Friend. And he does the same for us. Even when we declare, Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord one day and, I do not know the man! the next, Jesus still forgives us. Although we may waver when the Gospel challenges us to change, when our Christian witness means social stigma, or when our faith is tested by trial or temptation, nonetheless Jesus' offer of friendship never expires. During this Holy Week, let us pray for the grace to be good friends in return. May we be willing to accompany Christ on his path to Calvary, and remain steadfast with him all the way to the foot of the cross Gina Loehr Readings for the Week of April 9 Sunday: Mt 21:1-11/Is 50:4-7/Ps 22:8-9, 17-20, 23-24/Phil 2:6-11 /Mt 26:14--27:66 or 27:11-54 Monday: Is 42:1-7/Ps 27:1-3, 13-14/Jn 12:1-11 Tuesday: Is 49:1-6/Ps 71:1-4a, 5ab-6ab, 15, 17/Jn 13:21-33, Wednesday: Is 50:4-9a/Ps 69:8-10, 21-22, 31, 33-34/Mt 26:14-25 Thursday: Chrism Mass: Is 61:1-3a, 6a, 8b-9/Ps 89:21-22, 25, 27/Rv 1:5-8 /Lk 4:16-21 Mass of the Ex 12:1-8, 11-14/Ps 116:12-13, 15-16bc, 17-18/ Lord's Supper: /1 Cor 11:23-26/Jn 13:1-15 Friday: Is 52:13--53:12/Ps 31:2, 6, 12-13, 15-17, 25 /Heb 4:14-16; 5:7-9/Jn 18:1-- 19:42 Saturday: Vigil: Gn 1:1--2:2 or 1:1, 26-31a/Ps 104:1-2, 5-6, 10, 12-14, 24, 35 or Ps 33:4-7, 12-13, 20-22/Gn 22:1-18 or 22:1-2, 9a, 10-13, 15-18/Ps 16:5, 8-11/Ex 14:15--15:1/Ex 15:1-6, 17-18/Is 54:5-14/Ps 30:2, 4-6, 11-13/Is 55:1-11/Is 12:2-6/ Bar 3:9-15, 32--4:4/Ps 19:8-11/

Calling all gardeners With the arrival of spring, Father Anthony is indulging in thoughts of gardening. Having received training in landscape architecture and horticulture, he envisions some very attractive plots of greenery and flowers around St. Mary s Church and Rectory. Just imagine our buildings surrounded by beautiful blooms and attractive patterns of greenery. We have a great foundation already, thanks to the generous and caring work of hard-working volunteers the past couple of years. Any parishioner interested in helping make our parish grounds appear even more attractive is invited to call the Rectory at and leave a message for Father Anthony. TIME IS FLYING FAST: Here s a picture of Father Anthony greeting some parishioners at his welcoming reception back on March 12 th. It seems like it was only a few days ago.

8 Our 2017 Bishop s Appeal How One Office Serves Office of Information Technology Information Technology headed by Director Geralyn Fox and Pastoral Planning headed by Director Frank Berning, continue to work together toward improving communication around the diocese by bringing a geographically large diocese closer together with video conferencing. This past year video conferencing has really caught on around the Albany Diocese. Our staff and participants really like the technology. Being able to communicate in person is ideal, but video conferencing has proven to be the next best thing. It provides a way for us to communicate, see other participants regardless of location, share resources, bring presentations, conferences and training to our remote areas, dialog back and forth and decrease travel time all without giving up that sense of community. Classes are being taught from one site, while students at other sites are actively participating in real-time. In addition to the traditional classroom style, virtual classrooms are now an option for St. Bernard s students. Brian Evers, Associate Director for Safe Environment used this technology for the re-training of Parish Leaders in the Protecting God s Children Program (Virtus) held in each Vicariate. David Amico, Director of the Kateri Institute for Lay Ministry Formation along with others enjoys the many benefits this technology offers. With the ability to record the class, a student can watch the class on-demand when absent or later for review. PowerPoint presentations along with any other tools used in the classroom are incorporated into the recording. Permanent video conference sites around our diocese were selected with input from Bishop Scharfenberger along with his desire to have a fully functional location in each Vicariate.
