The Easter Sunday Mass of the Resurrection of the Lord is celebrated with great joy and music. “This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad!”

The Missale Romanum reminds us that the Easter Vigil is the "mother of all vigils," the "greatest and most noble of all solemnities."

On Good Friday, we recall Christ’s Passion and death. It is the only day of the Church calendar on which Mass is not celebrated. Instead, we gather quietly to pray, both for ourselves and those around us; to listen to Scripture; and to venerate the cross.

Holy Thursday marks the beginning of the sacred Easter Triduum, which culminates with the celebration of Easter.

Men, women, and children of St. Kateri Tekakwitha Parish will reenact Christ’s journey to the cross, from his condemnation at the hands of Pontius Pilate to his crucifixion, death, and resurrection.

Join Bishop Robert Deeley on Holy Saturday for the Office of Readings and Morning Prayer at 7:30 a.m. at the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception in Portland. It is a prayer and beautiful way to begin with solemn day as we wait in anticipation for the resurrection of Our Lord.
