The Triduum (The Three Days) is the ancient observance of the mystery of our salvation, which plunges the faithful into the death of Jesus and brings them with him to resurrection life. The Three Days is one liturgy, extending from Thursday evening through the Easter Vigil. You are invited to conform your life to the worship rhythms of the church on these three days:

• Maundy Thursday - Thurs., Apr. 2, 7:00pm: We experience Jesus through his command to love one another.

• Good Friday - Fri., Apr. 3:

  • 12:00noon - The 39th annual Harrisonburg downtown ecumenical Good Friday prayer walk begins at Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church.

  • 7:00pm Worship Service, Muhlenberg - We hear the passion of Christ the King, the narrative of Jesus crucified and reigning from the cross.

• Easter Vigil - Sat., Apr. 4, 8:00pm: This is the high point of the church’s year, the night, the very night, the Passover of Christ from death to life. We’ll begin with the lighting of the new fire, process into the Sanctuary as the Scripture comes to life through drama, then gather around the communion table to celebrate the first resurrection meal. Following the service, we’ll extend the celebration of Easter with food and fellowship.
