7PM - HOLY THURSDAY (Bilingual): THE LORD’S SUPPER
Jesus showed his love by washing the Apostles’ feet; the
priest washes the feet of some parishioners as a sign of
love and service for God’s people. Jesus invites us to eat
and drink, that we may recall his love for us and have a
share in his eternal life. The procession with the Blessed
Sacrament at the end of Mass is followed by a time of
adoration and personal prayer until Benediction at 11p.m.
3PM - GOOD FRIDAY (Bilingual): THE LORD’S PASSION
We recall the time of Jesus’ death on the cross and we listen to God’s Holy
Word, including the solemn reading of the passion narrative according to St.
John. Then we offer a special prayer of the faithful in its ancient format.
After the cross is carried solemnly into the church, we venerate this cross in
faith and love and then receive communion.
**This is a worldwide day of fasting and abstinence from meat.**
19H - JEUDI SAINT MESSE (Bilingue): DERNIER SOUPER
Jésus montre son amour en lavant les pieds des apôtres; le prêtre lave les
pieds de quelques paroissiens en signe d'amour et de service pour le
peuple de Dieu. Jésus nous invite à manger et à boire, afin de se rappeler
de son amour pour nous. La procession avec le Saint Sacrement à la fin de
la messe est suivie par un temps d'adoration et de prière personnelle.
15H - VENDREDI SAINT (Bilingue): LA PASSION DU SEIGNEUR
Nous rappelle la mort de Jésus sur la croix et nous écoutons
la lecture du récit de la Passion selon saint Jean. Puis nous
offrons une prière spéciale des fidèles dans son ancien
format. Une fois la croix transportée solennellement dans
l'église, nous la vénérons avec foi et amour et puis nous
recevoir la communion.
**C'est une journée mondiale de jeûne et de l'abstinence de viande.**
8PM - HOLY SATURDAY (English): EASTER VIGIL
Our celebration begins after dark in order to let the light of
Christ shine forth with splendor, and to show that this is the
greatest night of the year, the Church’s most solemn
celebration.
–Light service: Within the darkened church, we bless the
new fire and light the Easter candle. The priest carries the
light of Christ through the community, and all light their candles from it.
Then the Easter song of praise is sung.
–Word service: We listen to Bible readings and hear again the proclamation
that Jesus has been raised in glory from the grave. We rejoice, and
sing Alleluia! (This is Hebrew for “Praise the Lord!”)
–Baptism service: The water is blessed, and the catechumens proclaim their
faith and are baptized. All members of the community renew their baptismal
promises. The candidates are received into full
communion of the Catholic Church, and they are
confirmed.
–Eucharist: This celebration is the first Mass of
Easter. Those who became Catholics this night
make their First Communion.
20H - SAMEDI SAINT (Anglais): VEILLÉE PASCALE
Notre célébration débute après la tombée de la nuit afin de laisser la
lumière du Christ resplendir, et pour montrer que cette nuit est la
plus grande nuit de notre histoire et la célébration la plus solennelle
de l’Église.
-Le feu nouveau : dans l’obscurité, le célébrant bénis le nouveau feu
et le cierge Pascal. Le prêtre porte la lumière du Christ à travers la
communauté, et tous allument leurs bougies d'elle. Puis le cantique
de louange de Pâques est chanté.
-La Parole : nous écoutons les lectures de la bible, et entendons de
nouveau la proclamation que Jésus a été élevé du tombeau dans la gloire.
Nous nous réjouissons, et chantons « alléluia ! » (mot hébreu pour
"Louez le Seigneur!")
-Baptême : l'eau est bénite, et les catéchumènes proclament leur foi et
sont baptisés. Tous les membres de la communauté renouvellent leurs
promesses baptismales. Les candidats sont reçus dans la
pleine communion de l'Église catholique, et ils sont
confirmés.
-L’Eucharistie : cette célébration est la première messe de
Pâques. Ceux qui sont devenus catholiques ce soir font leur
première communion.
9AM (F) & 11AM (E) MASSES: EASTER SUNDAY - We continue to
celebrate the rising of Jesus, and our share in his life: This is the day the Lord
has made, and we rejoice! After the homily in the Masses, we all renew our
baptismal promises.
9H (F) & 11H (E) MESSES: LE DIMANCHE DE PÂQUES - Nous
continuons de célébrer la montée de Jésus, et notre part dans sa vie : c'est
le jour que le Seigneur a fait, et nous nous en réjouissons! Après l'homélie
nous renouvelons tous les promesses de notre baptême.
