Father, as we await the hope of Sunday on this Holy Saturday, prepare our hearts to thank you, to praise you and to go confidently with the joy to come. #HolySaturday #Triduum
#triduum
Today is #HolySaturday It’s the day Jesus lay dead and buried. The day all creation holds its breath. The day between what was and what is promised. The day crucifixion and violence have won, and the day of hoped-for Resurrection is yet to come.
And in reality, this is where we live: In one long Holy Saturday between the already of yesterday and the not yet of the promise.
Taking some quiet time before the #GoodFriday service in about 2-1/2 hours.

First service of the #Triduum is in the books. In some respects, this one went better than last year (Altar Guild was more organized), but in other areas it wasn’t as good as last year (lower attendance). But still, it’s #MaundyThursday and it’s always a moving experience when we strip the altar.

The Triduum has begun. On Maundy Thursday Jesus prays in a garden. Hot Cross Buns are ready for tomorrow. #holyweek #triduum #baking
I attended the funeral of my cousin's son today. He was 2.5 months old.
I am comforted by knowing that #Jesus also wept when he saw the distress of those he loved. And then he gave us all hope. #triduum #Easter #Bible
'Then Mary, when she came where Jesus was and saw him, fell at his feet, saying to him, "Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died." When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who came with her also weeping, he was deeply moved in spirit and troubled; and he said, "Where have you laid him?" They said to him, "Lord, come and see." Jesus wept.' John 11:32-35

We are going to have very beautiful feast days in honor of our blessed martyrs of Compiègne on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday.
I will be able to attend them in a little tribune, for Sister Thérèse of the Child Jesus granted my prayer three months ago by giving me the strength to take a few steps, which had been impossible for me.
That is a great consolation to me, for I can spend many hours in the dear little tribune, which has a grille opening on the sanctuary; I go to seek strength there, close to Him who has suffered so much because “he loved us exceedingly” [Eph 2:4], as the Apostle says.
Saint Elizabeth of the Trinity
Letter 324 to Germaine de Gemeaux (excerpt)
Around 10 October 1906
Biographer and editor Conrad de Meester, O.C.D. mentions that the Carmelites of Dijon celebrated the beatification of the Martyrs of Compiègne for three consecutive days: Saturday through Monday, 13 through 15 October 1906.
Mother Teresa of St. Augustine Lidoine and the Martyrs of Compiègne were beatified on 27 May 1906 by St. Pius X in St. Peter’s Basilica. Father de Meester notes that during this October triduum, Père Vallée, the prior of the Dominican friars at Dijon, preached at Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament on 13 and 14 October.
Then Bishop Dadolle of Dijon celebrated a pontifical Mass in the morning on Monday 15 October for the solemnity of St. Teresa of Avila; he also was the preacher for Benediction later in the day.
There was a window with a grille in the second-floor infirmary that permitted Elizabeth to look down on the sanctuary during the Mass and Benediction and to pray near the tabernacle whenever she desired (Cf. Photograph 191 on page 126 in Light, Love, Life: a look at a face and a heart).
Elizabeth attributes her ability to walk from her infirmary bed to this window to the intercession of St. Thérèse of Lisieux.
Elizabeth enclosed a holy card of the newly-beatified Martyrs in her letter to her young friend Germaine.

O God, who made this most holy night to shine with the glory of the Lord's resurrection: Stir up in your Church that Spirit of adoption which is given to us in Baptism, that we, being renewed both in body and mind, may worship you in sincerity and truth; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

O God, Creator of heaven and earth: Grant that, as the crucified body of your dear Son was laid in the tomb and rested on this holy Sabbath, so we may await with him the coming of the third day, and rise with him to newness of life; who now lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the living God, we pray you to set your passion, cross, and death between your judgment and our souls, now and in the hour of our death. Give mercy and grace to the living; pardon and rest to the dead; to your holy Church peace and concord; and to us sinners everlasting life and glory; for with the Father and the Holy Spirit you live and reign, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
Almighty God, we pray you graciously to behold this your family, for whom our Lord Jesus Christ was willing to be betrayed, and given into the hands of sinners, and to suffer death upon the cross; who now lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
Blessings on this most holy day... Good Friday. May you experience a profound realization of God’s great love for you.

Amen.
