The Easter Triduum: Reflections on Good Friday

My Friend the Friar

Send us a Text Message.

Step inside the solemnity of the Good Friday Liturgy with Father Stephen Sanchez and witness how the Church's traditions invite us into a journey of reflection and profound understanding. Together, we unveil the mystagogical significance of the Good Friday liturgy and discover how this sacred day bears the weight of our salvation history.
Examine this particular day of the Triduum, where sometimes silence speaks louder than words, and traditional aspects of the liturgy are notably absent. Father Sanchez guides us through the liturgy's powerful themes, including the passion narrative from John's Gospel, the symbolism of blood and water, and the birth of the Church. Feel the gravity of Christ's sacrifice anew as we delve into the depth of the passion narrative and reflect on the absence which would have followed his death.
The transformative power of the Holy Spirit comes alive as we discuss the personal spiritual encounters clergy and laity have during these intimate celebrations. Join us and enrich your faith with the timeless wisdom of these pivotal moments in the Catholic tradition.
