Passiontide calls us to trust completely in God
After
the quasi-festive nature of Laetare “Rejoice” Sunday last weekend, the
Church now enters a more concentrated time of penance.
Historically called Passiontide, this period recalls the slow seclusion of the Lord Jesus from his public ministry as he begins for his Passion. These final days of Lent, therefore, call believers to a somber preparation for the Sacred Triduum, which is the three-day observance of the Passion, Death, and Resurrection of Jesus Christ.
