Good Friday 2014

Good Friday
Passion of our Lord
for our sins

1. the Passion of our Lord...
(The Liturgy Readings can be found here.)
our Lord stripped of His clothes,
the altar stripped of its cloths

Solemn Intercessory Prayers

2. Veneration of the Cross:
"Behold the wood of the Cross,
on which hung the salvation of the world."
R "Come, let us adore."

3. no Mass celebrated
 Holy Communion received
from that left from Holy Thursday
now...the tabernacle- empty 

shared with Rebecca's
Haiku My Heart

Holy Thursday Post

April 17, 2014

Holy Mary, I beg of you to assist me 

in avoiding the act of adding 

to the wounds of your Son and our Savior, Jesus Christ.  

Guide my hands to do God’s work.  

Direct my thoughts to bring glory 

to God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.   

Help me to see Christ in the faces of whomever I meet, 

whether at my own door, at church, 

or in the check-out lines or in traffic.  

Keep my mind ever aware of the gifts 

for which God has provided me 

and to give thanks at all times.  

Help me to enter into this Triduum- 

Mass of the Last Supper,

Good Friday of the Lord’s Passion 

and Mass of the Resurrection of the Lord-  

with sincerity and deep love in my heart, 

true piety and faithful attention 

to all that occurs at your Son’s altar.  

I ask all of this by your intercession 

to Your Son, Christ our Lord.

Amen.
