    As a boy, I went to a Franciscan church on Holy (Maundy) Thursday, and the friar came up to me before mass and said, "I want to wash your feet!" I thought to myself, "Are my feet clean?" Eventually, I gave in. The Franciscans became a part of my life that day, almost 50 years now.

    I was an emcee for the Paschal Triduum at my parish. I agree, this beautiful celebration of the Paschal Triduum is spiritually exhausting (and physically - I spent a total of 19 hours in churches over that weekend). On Maundy Thursday, my youth group joined in the ancient tradition of church-hopping and then ended with a stunning Tenebræ service at the University of Notre Dame. On Good Friday, I witnessed people fall before the crucifix and kiss the Wounds which saved us. Then, on Holy Saturday, I was blessed to be able welcome into the Church the elect. I was able to once again return to joy as Christ rose from the dead. As exhausting as the Triduum can be, Brother, you are correct, it is the greatest "show" of all. It makes me and the many other teens from my youth group proud to be Catholic.

    I’m Episcopalian, but the Triduum is still an extremely important part of the liturgical year, THE most, in fact. From the institution of the Eucharist to the sorrow and mourning of Good Friday, to the proclamation “Alleluia, Christ is risen! The Lord is risen indeed, Alleluia!”at the vigil, it is all an amazing experience, no matter how many times you go through it.

    The Mass on Easter Sunday is also a part of the Triduum (Technically, the Triduum does not end until the evening of Easter Sunday, with the conclusion of Vespers (i.e., Evening Prayer)), but is more or less the same length and structure as the average Sunday Mass, with a couple of differences (For example, the chanting of the Sequence, after the Second Reading, but before the Gospel Acclamation (the Alleluia), and after the Homily, the Renewal of Baptismal Promises (in place of the Profession of Faith), followed by the Sprinkling Rite).
    Also, at the Liturgy of the Lord's Passion, on Good Friday, the Intercessions are done in a different way than they are at other Masses.

    Many years ago, I volunteered to became the interim music director at my church beginning with Palm Sunday. (Thankfully, the previous music director provided a month's notice.)
    That Easter was the most spiritually fulfilling Easter I have ever had. To prepare for the liturgies, I studied how the Triduum was structured and tried to understand the "why" behind it. Even though my focus was split between the altar, the piano, and directing the choir, I still felt the impact.
    It affected me so much, I started crying while playing the "Gloria" at the Easter Vigil.

    I would be disappointed two years ago. But then I learned what typology is. Last year I *actually* paid attention to the readings and the prayers for the Easter Vigil Mass and realized how rich it all is. The prayer over the baptismal font really blew my mind.
    In your video, the choir is beautiful!

It is easily my favorite service of the Christian Year even though it is difficult to get busy people to come to a long service on the Saturday night before Easter. I would like to hear you sing the Exsultet though, since you performed the dismissal so well < grin >.

    This Paschal Triduum is my first time completed all three consecutively and , yes, as you have said it is the most amazing, incredible and awesome triduum.
    I especially love the paschal candle blessing and procession. The Baptism of Cathecumens, and renewal of Baptismal Faith of all of us . These touches me so deeply that i love it so much, i would love it to be celebrated in Extraordinary Form if in future that i have a chance to.
    Pax Tecum Brother Casey. Alleluia!

    Very beautiful! Thanks for sharing! I am not Catholic, but me and my family attend mass at the Cathedral of the Madeleine in Salt Lake City from time to time. The Cathedral is well over a hundred years old. The architecture is Gothic revival complete with gargoyles and everything else you'd expect a Cathedral from the middle ages to look like. The services themselves are very traditional as well. Although I believe they are in conformity with the Second Vatican Council (again, I'm not a Catholic), most of the mass is sung and much of the music sung by the choir (who are always dressed in robes) is in Latin. Most of the time they sing a capella. However, the magnificent pipe organ does sometimes accompany them. Most of the music dates back to the middle ages and the Renaissance. The choir is amazing made up mostly of school age children as this Cathedral has a full time choir school. For me, attending mass at this Cathedral is like entering a portal back in time to the early Renaissance. And I mean that in a good way. We last attended on Palm Sunday. Luckily we got there early because it was completely packed! The services shown on your video seem much more modern as was the church itself. The choir was still amazing. The point I want to make is that even though there is such a stark contrast. The spirit is the same. Your video portrayed that. It was just as beautiful as the old style because the Holy Spirit was present. I think you're going to be a wonderful deacon and someday a great priest. Again, thanks for sharing this video and all the other wonderful videos you've posted. Peace be with you!

      Thank you very much for sharing! It's amazing how our faith can be expressed in so many ways and yet be the same, isn't it? A true wonder of the Holy Spirit! Happy Easter to you!
