Themes of Holy Week

By Sister Beverly Heitke, SDS

Holy Thursday is so profound in the mystery of Jesus as Servant Leader – especially with the washing of the feet.  The segment of the Gospel relating this event is deeply moving for me.

The Good Friday, Holy Saturday and Easter Sunday Triduum is a time to reflect on Letting Go (the death of Jesus), Letting Be (the silence of Jesus in the tomb) and Letting Grow (the Resurrection of Jesus in full glory and life).  These themes are so rich in meaning and inspirational, and each year I welcome the opportunity to deepen them.
