Palm The Twenty-third Sunday of the Sunday Passion in Ordinary of The Lord: Time September March 25, 10,2018 2006 Question & Answer: At church, they keep inviting us to celebrate the Easter Triduum. What is this? Triduum means "three days," usually referring to Christ's resurrection from the dead "on the third day." The Easter Triduum refers to the three days beginning with sundown on Holy Thursday and ending with evening prayer on Easter Sunday. Reckoning days from sundown to sundown is still evident in both Jewish and Christian practice. The Easter Triduum celebrates one continuous feast spread over three days. That feast centers on the commemoration of Christ's passion, death and resurrection, beginning with the Mass of the Lord's Supper on Holy Thursday evening. The Holy Thursday liturgy flows into a vigil experience with Christ in the Garden. The vigil continues to follow Christ through the Good Friday events of his arrest, trial, scourging and nailing to the cross, leading to his death. Good Friday ends with a veneration of the cross on which Jesus died, as we commemorate his death and burial. Holy Saturday is spent in quiet reflection on Christ entombed as we anticipate the resurrection joy fully celebrated at sundown during the Easter Vigil. Nine Scripture readings recount God's constant love from the beginning of time, culminating in the person of Jesus. During the Vigil, the elect are fully initiated by being baptized into Christ and fully welcomed at the community's eucharistic table. The Triduum Easter feast culminates with the Resurrection joy of Easter Sunday. The one continuous feast comes to a close with Easter Sunday's evening prayer. Make an effort this year to enter fully into the one continuous feast of the Easter Triduum.
