TRIDUUM, THE THREE DAYS Please welcome the following members of the
Some people become so well known to the rest of us that we don't need much to identifY Notre Dame community, who will be baptized them. Bill and Hillary. Monk. Lou. The artist formerly known as Prince. These next three days begin a time so important to the Church we identifY them simply as and received into the Church at the Easter Vigil. "The Three Days." The Latin word is Triduum, which sounds fancier, but both languages recognize that in the whole of the Church year, we accord the liturgies we will celebrate tonight, tomorrow and Saturday night a special status. We know these days well enough that Sacraments ofInitiation we need little to identifY them-- we don't need a "last name." During The Three Days, we gather together as a community to celebrate the liturgies of the Last Supper; the Passion and death of Jesus; and the Easter Vigil. We live with Jesus the Jill Clemens sorrow and pain and humiliation of death and we enter with him into the joy and promise of resurrection, salvation and life. Ricardo Fallon But how do we enter into that salvation? We don't literally die with Jesus-- and in fact, we don't watch him die over and over each year either. Through our own baptism, Jesus calls out to us that we must not miss any of the whole of life -- we must believe that really to live means Sherrx Fischer to live as Jesus did, to discover through loving others the whole truth of entrusting our lives ro God. We know this on Holy Thursday when we hear the Gospel story of Jesus washing the Michelle Inouye feet of his disciples and watch the presider wash the feet of ordinary men and women-- maybe our neighbor's feet, maybe a stranger's, maybe our own. MaiLx If we call Holy Thursday the Mass of the Lord's Supper, if it commemorates most solemnly the sacrament of the Eucharist, then why do we pay so much attention to feet? Feet Todd Mtller are unglamorous, plain, even ugly. To wash another's feet signals that this kind of humble service to others calls us to salvation, to live as the Body of Christ. The sacrament of the Benjamin Paine Eucharist nourishes us to live as Jesus did --and it means nothing if it does not somehow transform our hearts to wash feet, to wipe away tears, to welcome the outcast, even to suffer injustice or death. Erica Peterson Sometimes we hear that death "puts it all in perspective." In fact, the pain and the sorrow and the seeming finality and negation of death seems only to laugh at our notions of success in Colby Springer the world. Yet God does know most intimately what it means to be filled with sorrow, even the sorrow of the most difficult mystery to understand or accept, the death of one we love. Kristopher Winningham Our baptism challenges us to be willing to suffer with others, to bear a cross. God gives us each of our lives as a gift; God calls us to accept that gift by living as stewards, as loving-- yet in the end. temporary-- caretakers of our lives. Jesus' cross, his humiliating death, helps us to know Reception into Full Communion that even death is part of that gift. Why do we call the cross the sign of hope? Because Jesus took all suffering with' him in his death on the cross and turned it into victory; he let us know that now nothing, no sin of ours, no matter how great, could defeat God's love. Jesus' disciples found him an embarrassment; he Jason Beckwith seemed like no Messiah but only a failure. Yet before The Three Days end, Jesus takes up all failure, all death to himself and wraps it in an embrace oflove. Heather Belanger The Three Days conclude with the Easter Vigil, the holiest night of the year. The Gospel story describes the amazement and confusion of Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, Elizabeth Blackman and Salome at their discovery ofJesus' resurrection. They go to his tomb out of sorrow and love, and discover that God's love is greater, more overwhelming, more triumphant than they Marc Conner had ever imagined. We renew our own promises of baptism and join in Jesus' resurrection. We discover again and again not failure but triumph, not defeat but victory. We begin to learn that others whom we have encountered, maybe even scorned, in our lives -- maybe we ourselves Ann Frigon --are not failures at all, but God showing us what being human is truly all about. Often in the midst of our communities during the Easter Vigil, we have with us people Brian Laudeman who will be baptized, who will join with us in Jesus' challenge, in his embrace oflove and his willingness to entrust life and suffering and joy to God. In our Notre Dame community, we Karen Lutjen have I 0 srudents among us who will be baptized, and I 0 who will be received into full communion with the Catholic Church. All 20 will be confirmed and will share in the body Steven Malynn and blood of Christ through the Eucharist. Please keep them in your prayers, and may we all discover again the joy of Jesus' resurrection and the call to live the messages ofThe Three Days Steven Walters throughout our lives. Kate S.
