HOLY THURSDAY (April 9th -- THE MOST ROMANTIC DAY OF THE YEAR!!!)

8:15am - 9:00am, Tenebrae @ St. Dominic's (Tenebrae is part of the Liturgy of the Hours and is often referred to as the Office of Shadows because it is traditionally prayed with all the lights turned off in the church. Only a certain number of candles arranged in a triangular candle holder called a hearse flicker in the darkness to create the shadows, and one by one, they are extinguished. I encourage you all to attend the Tenebrae service at St. Dominic's, and make sure you grab a spiral-bound booklet containing the prayers from the plastic container as you enter the church.)
