Holy Week Services

The Holy Week is a very short Church period, but it is nonetheless the most eventful and important one for all Christians. During it, the Church closely follows the last scenes of our Lord's life. On the last three days of the Holy Week, the Church even reproduces, in a kind of sacred drama, the last acts of the Passion of our Lord.

This year's confirmed Holy Week services & events are listed below. Join us in this most sacred period at your local parish.
