This Week in Campus nistrv The Easter Triduum& the Real Presence Coleman-Morse Center • 631-7800 Holy Week 1 01

We start the great liturgy by commemorating Senior Retreat #6 Jesus' Last Supper with the apostles in the Upper Room the night before he died for us.

Easter Sunday 3) Easter Vigil. The whole Church gathers in 8:00a.m. darkness around a "new fire". A large candle is lit Rev. Nicholas R. Ayo, c.s.c. from that fire and the light is shared with all. An ancient hymn, the "Exulrer" is then sung, which tells of God's power over darkness and sin. The Liturgy of the Word is expanded on this night, giving a wonderful 10:00 a.m. sense of the divine work over time. Then, those who have been preparing, through prayer and study, are Most Rev. Daniel R. Jenky, c.s.c. baptized in the midst of the assembly, and others join in full Communion with the Church.

We hate to boast (no we don't!) bur Holy Week services here are something to behold. And they would be even better if you were to join us. Gospel Jn 20:1-9 We shouldn't be mere spectators or bystanders in these liturgies. It's not as though we are just watching these events unfold or are celebrating something that happened two millennia ago. We are active participants, for when we celebrate these things in the liturgy they become present to us and we to them. It is though we are being transported back into the Upper Room, the foot of the cross, and the entrance of the tomb. We are really there.

That's what the Real Presence is all about. Every time we celebrate the Eucharist or another sacrament, we believe that Christ is really and truly present to us. It's not that we believe we are "re-crucifying" Christ. That would be absolutely horrible (and impossible). But at every Mass we know that we are brought into the original event of the passion, death, and resurrection of Jesus.

Then we are to take it to the world. We are to be the "real presence" of Christ for others. We do that first of all by giving over our lives in the service of others. We may not be called upon to die the way Jesus died, but we are all commanded to serve the rest. As we celebrate Easter this year, we want to become more Christ-like, affording hope and new life in the world in which we live.

"I think we all thought that we were a lot better than they were," said Taborga. "To be honest with you, I thought that we were tough enough that if we were playing bad we could win the match. Apparently, that wasn't so. I think that every­ one's really disappointed." Bayliss stopped short of say­ ing the Irish were too compla­ cent, but warned of the dangers of any smugness resulting from high rankings or past perfor­ mances "I can't read what's in other people's minds. I think some of our guys were surprised. I wasn't shocked," Bayliss said. "I think you always have to guard against [complacency]. "I do think some of the guys have gotten wrapped up in [the rankings]. It's difficult not to become too outcome-oriented. If you become that way, I think it sets you up for a fall."

Baseball continued from page 24 "We've always had great games with West Virginia," O'Connor said. "It's always seemed whether it's been at Notre Dame or West Virginia that it's been a great game. They usually come down to the end of the game, and it's often a one or two run game." Last season, the Irish swept the doubleheader at home from the Mountaineers 4-1 and 8-1, but those victories came largely on the efforts of two complete game perfor­ mances from pitchers Aaron Heilman and Danny Tamayo, who have since graduated. On Saturday, the Irish square off against Georgetown, who has had a It used to be the end of a great night. much rougher time this sea­ son than either Notre Dame It could soon be the start of a great day. or West Virginia.
