ZenBlue Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 I love this week. It always reminds me of my own confirmation after going through the RCIA many ([i]many[/i]) years ago. I think that the coming of spring and warm weather serves as a perfect reminder of the endless, boundless, unconditional love and compassion this week commemorates.

misereremi Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 My absolute favourite weeks of the year- til the Divine Mercy feast. I haven't done enough works of mercy this lent, though, so will have to make up for it starting now. Going on pilgrimage to Fatima on Holy Saturday. Is anyone doing the 40 hours?

avemaria40 Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 Holy week is awesome! My mom and I are psyched about Easter Vigil since it's a reminder of when we converted (my mom converted last year and I converted the year before). Holy Thursday Mass is beautiful and we're going to Stations of the Cross on Friday, I don't know if we're going to Service of the Shadows though. I know I have to go to Confession this week though, but I am so psyched for this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tink Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 [color=purple] "I rejoice heartily in the LORD, in my God is the joy of my soul; For he has clothed me with a robe of salvation, and wrapped me in a mantle of justice, Like a bridegroom adorned with a diadem, like a bride bedecked with her jewels. As the earth brings forth its plants, and a garden makes its growth spring up, So will the Lord GOD make justice and praise spring up before all the nations." Has anyone ever heard the song Isaiah 61 by Matt Maher? It's been on my heart sooo much the past few days! [/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theologian in Training Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 [quote name='Brother Adam' date='Apr 9 2006, 08:49 PM']This is the first Holy Week since becoming Catholic that Teresa and I will be able to spend in one place and actually really participate in all of the liturgies and going on's. I'm really excited. Last year was so crazy we were barely able to calm down and participate in our confirmations prayerfully and calmly.

toledo_jesus Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 I'm excited about the end of Holy Week. I am anticipating one final push of misery and meditation on my sinfulness before I can celebrate on Easter. I think this year I'll rent the Passion.
