The Veneration of the Cross

Adoration or veneration of an image or representation of Christ's cross does not mean that we are actually adoring the material image, of course, but rather what it represents. In kneeling before the crucifix and kissing it we are paying the highest honor to the our Lord's cross as the instrument of our salvation. Because the Cross is inseparable from His sacrifice, in reverencing His Cross we are, in effect, adoring Christ. Thus we affirm: 'We adore Thee, O Christ, and we bless Thee because by Thy Holy Cross Thou has Redeemed the World.'

Good Friday is also called Holy Friday, Black Friday, or Great Friday. The origin of the term ‘Good’ is not clear. Some people say that the term originates from German word "Gute Freitag”, which means holy or good Friday. The second possibility is "God's Friday," where the word "good" was used to replace the word "God," which was often viewed as too holy for commoners to speak.

Whatever may be its origin, Good Friday, despite being associated with the suffering of Christ on the cross, is called “Good” because Christ sacrificed his life to redeem humanity from its sins.

Eucharistic Adoration

Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration is the adoration of Jesus Christ present in the Holy Eucharist. In the many Churches that have this adoration, the Eucharist is displayed in a special holder called a monstrance, and people come to pray and worship Jesus continually throughout the day and often the night. Christ’s great love for us was shown when he was crucified on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins and give us eternal life. He loves us without limit, and offers Himself to us in the Holy sacrament of the Eucharist. Can we not give Jesus a few minutes of love and adoration in return?

Washing of the Feet

The symbolic ritual is a re-enactment of Jesus's washing of his disciples' feet at the Last Supper as a gesture of humility.

Washing of the Feet

The Washing of the Feet is a traditional component of the celebration in many Christian Churches. In the Roman Catholic Church, the Mass of the Lord's Supper begins as usual, but the Gloria is accompanied by the ringing of bells, which are then silent until the Easter Vigil. After the homily the washing of feet may be performed. The service concludes with a procession taking the Blessed Sacrament to the place of reposition. The altar is later stripped bare, as are all other altars in the church except the Altar of Repose. In pre-1970 editions, the Roman Missal envisages this being done ceremonially, to the accompaniment of Psalm 21/22,[35][36] a practice which continues in many churches. In other Christian denominations, the stripping of the altar and other items on the chancel also occurs, as a preparation for the somber Good Friday service.

Maundy Thursday Crowd

Maundy Thursday

All Catholics around the world celebrate Maundy Thursday. Maundy Thursday which also called Holy Thursday is the beginning of the three day celebration of Easter - the most important time in the year for Christians. Maundy Thursday is celebrated the day before Good Friday. It is one of the lesser known days of the Christian calendar. Maundy Thursday commemorates the Last Supper of Jesus Christ with the Apostles.

The word “Maundy” is derived from the Latin word for “command.” The “Maundy” in Maundy Thursday refers to the command Jesus gave to the disciples at the Last Supper, that they should love and serve one another. Jesus was crucified on a Friday, Jesus shared the important Last Supper with his apostles on a Thursday.
