Holy Thursday: The Mass of the Lord's Supper. The evening begins with the procession of the Holy Oils, consecrated at the Chrism Mass earlier this week. After the homily the washing of the feet takes place. We end with the Liturgy of the Eucharist, as at the Last Supper of Christ, and a procession of the Blessed Sacrament to the Altar of Repose.
What a great way to prepare for Triduum. Thank you to everyone who attended this evening's Tenebræ service.
