The Triduum - Reflections on Holy Thursday, Good Friday, Easter Vigil

Marci shares her excitement and knowledge of the 3 holy days of the Triduum. Our original discussion was 1 hour and 20 minutes, now down to 46 minutes. Laura runs out of steam at the end. Please forgive the shortened Easter vigil description. Holy Thursday Readings: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/041725-Supper.cfmGood Friday Readings: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/041825.cfmEaster Vigil Readings : https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/041925.cfmWe spent much of our history arguing about the “how” and the “if” and who could do what Catholics called the “transubstantiation” of the bread and wine instead of simply learning how to be present. We made the Eucharist into a magic act to be believed instead of a personal transformation to be experienced. We changed bread more than people, it seems to me. We emphasized the priest as the “transformer” instead of the people as the transformed. We made “Real Presence” into a doctrine (which has its very good meaning!), but we seldom taught people how to be really present (which is contemplation). When you are really present, you will experience the Real Presence for yourself.--Fr. Richard RohrThank you for listening! Questions? Comments?
