The “triduum” (Latin for “three days”) is the period of preparation for the feast of Easter. The liturgies for Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, Holy Saturday, and Easter all connect to one another to pull worshippers into the story of Jesus’s last days, death, and resurrection. Join us for these services and journey with Jesus in a new way this Easter!
