Holy Saturday-Day of Silence

Holy Saturday - Day of Silence
©2010 James Dacey, Jr. SFO

Hello Everyone,

Today is a day that we should not blog, speak or celebrate; after diligent research and many years of experience through Lent leading up to Easter, it is known that No Mass is in today's liturgy. This isn't a day to be sad, but rather one to be waiting with excitement and anticipation of Jesus conquering satan and evil. Death will no longer hold us, we are now able to be united with Jesus in Heaven after our death. Tomorrow will be a most joyous day for us to celebrate. Today I suggest prayer and silence; and in my prayer suggestion either the Rosary or the Stations will keep you close to Jesus, scripture and our Blessed Mother.


The Stations of The Cross
Jesus is Condemned to Die
Jesus is Made to Bear His Cross
Jesus Falls the First Time
Jesus Meets His Mother
Simon Helps Jesus Carry His Cross
Veronica Wipes Jesus' Face
Jesus Falls the Second Time
Jesus Meets the Women of Jerusalem
Jesus Falls the Third Time
Jesus is Stripped
Jesus is Nailed to the Cross
Jesus Dies on the Cross
Jesus is Taken Down from the Cross
Jesus is Laid in the Tomb
