If I find the link I'll send it your way...or maybe you've already read it. <BR/><BR/>Anyway, at the Cathedral, althogh I've never been there for Holy Thursday (would have PAID to be there last night), my understanding is that the Archbishop washes the feet of the RCIA candidates/catechumans. I think that's a cool way to handle it. <BR/><BR/>And you just touched on something I'd asked the priest at my parish (da boss) about the other day. We were talking about Holy Week and all the stuff that goes with it, and I asked him if he even had a chance to really ENJOY it? He had said that in the moment, he's so focused on making sure everything goes the way it's supposed to, that normally the full meaning comes to him later when he has time to reflect on it. And then he said that it's easier when he has good helpers like the DRE and I. (Awwww! Tip: be really nice to your faith formation staff and they will love you forever with undying loyalty!)<BR/><BR/>Of course...now I'm completely terrified that I'm going to trip over my betraying feet tomorrow as I lead the catechumans to the baptismal font.Adorohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02853244433854822731noreply@blogger.com
