The Paschal Tridiuum of the Passion and Resurrection of the Lord begins with the evening Mass of the Lord s Supper, has its center in the Easter Vigil, and closes with Vespers (Evening Prayer) on the Sunday of the Resurrection (Universal Norms, 18-19). Kingdom of God Jesus entry into Jerusalem manifested the coming kingdom that the King-Messiah was going to accomplish by the Passover of His Death and Resurrection. It is with the celebration of that entry on Palm Sunday that the Church s liturgy solemnly opens Holy Week (Cathechism of the Catholic Church, 560). Collections this Weekend The second collection will be Easter Flowers; the third collection will be Operation Rice Bowl. The Little White Book Complimentary copies of The Little White Book for the Easter Season will be distributed after Mass this weekend, Mar The Little White Book, published by the Diocese of Saginaw, offers six-minute reflections on the weekday Gospels of Easter.
