Holy Week Message from the CCRL amidst the Covid-19 Pandemic
The closure of churches is depriving the faithful of the sacraments in the short term, at the most sacred time of the Christian calendar. Perhaps for this year’s Easter Triduum, let’s take a moment to place crucifixes in the front windows of our homes, or on our front porches, if possible. It would be an outward sign of our veneration of the cross, through which we come to the glory of the resurrection. Placing a candle in those places on Easter would be a further sign of the light of Christ.
