Easter
May you all have a blessed Easter Triduum. Below is a nice summary of the Triduum from the Archdiocese of Toronto.
From John McFarland
On Wednesday, Sr. Solanus directed professional development for our faculty.
Here is a link to the Divine Mercy Novena that Sr. Solanus mentioned. Each day of the novena, you pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet and a different prayer and intention for the day. Below I included a link to all of that in a PDF booklet, which also includes how to pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet and those prayers. Also, there is a link to a helpful website with a lot of good information on the Divine Mercy Chaplet, the Novena, the history, and other helpful resources.
Praying that each of you has a blessed Triduum and glorious Easter.
