O most gentle Jesus
by your most bitter death
give us a lively faith,
a firm hope
and a perfect charity,
that with our whole hearts
we may love you
with all our soul and strength.
-St. Clare of Assisi
T h e J o u r n e y o f F a i t h w i t h F a t h e r M a t t h e w O a k l a n d
T his coming week is normally my favorite week of the year. The smells and bells, the special
rituals, are awesome in the truest use of the word—leaving us in awe at the love of God for us as we go
through this incredible drama that is the Passion, Death and Resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ—
and our own as well, if we faithfully enter into that mystery. Our lives find their entire meaning and purpose in these commemorations. Through these
liturgies we celebrate our salvation.
Last year, we were not able to celebrate together in person. Thankfully for nine months now we have
resumed the celebration of public Masses, with all sorts of extra protocols in place. However, I know
many will still not be joining us in person.
When we come to church, we come to praise God, to worship and adore. In His goodness and love, he
gives us the gift of community to journey together, as He nourishes us with the Eucharist and guides us
with His Word as He sends us into the world as apostles. We are called to take Jesus with us. And
if we don’t bring Jesus into our homes, then we might as well not come to Mass in the first place.
Our home is the domestic church—the place where
our relationship with Jesus is lived each day. We spend time in prayer there each day. We put into practice the commands to love God and love
neighbor. We grow in goodness and virtue and share in a life-long journey toward Heaven as the
grace of the Sacraments help us grow in holiness.
During Holy Week, whether you are joining us in person or via livestream, I would encourage you to
encounter Christ in your home in a new way, whether you are alone or as a family. In this bulletin
you will find some helpful ways of doing just that as we enter into the mysteries of our salvation.
We call it Holy Week for a reason. It holds the
treasure of the richness of God. And we can become, holy, as well, in and through it—if we
follow Jesus.

During Lent, in this Year of the Eucharist in the
Archdiocese of Seattle, we have invited
parishioners to join together in reflecting upon the
Eucharist, this great mystery of our faith, using a
series of 4 videos on Formed, an online platform
which is free to all of our members through our
parish subscription.
If you didn't join us for whatever reason, we would
encourage you to take advantage of this great
opportunity now, or later—as the platform is
always accessible through our parish subscription.
Growing in faith doesn't just happen on its own.
Delve into the beautiful mystery that is the love of
God for us through lots of different resources for
people at all points in the journey and of all ages.
Extra videos
There are two extra videos that you can view by
going to https://watch.formed.org/presence. One is designed for parents helping prepare their children for First Communion. Whether your
children have already received their First Communion or will in the future, this is a great
watch for everyone. If you don’t have children, or they are grown, its still a great watch as it reflects on
the role of the Eucharist and family life, and how we can help others to grow in the love of God.
The second extra video is a walkthrough of the Mass for children to help better understand what is happening. Have children? It is a great watch!
Don’t have children? It is still a great watch as we can all use some good reminders.
Take advantage of the blessings God bestows upon us, and never forget the importance of faithfully
responding in love ourselves.
Prayer for Spiritual Communion
Because of the original shutdown, and the many
who continue to join us only from afar, an ancient
prayer has become much more familiar. The
richness of the words is well worth extra time
pondering—that they might not just be nice words,
but heartfelt desires.
My Jesus, I believe that
you are present in the
most holy Sacrament.
I love You above all things and I desire to receive
You into my soul.
Since I cannot now receive You sacramentally,
come at least
spiritually into my heart.
I embrace You as if You were already there, and
unite myself wholly to You.
Never permit me to be separated from You.
Amen.

God is Always Present:
Creating a Prayer Space at Home
St . Paul in 1 Thessalonians 5:17 encourages us to never stop praying and
to be thankful in all circumstances. During this time of separation, we can respond to St.
Paul’s call by recognizing God’s constant presence in our daily lives. Such a space can be created using a mantel or shelf or table. It
is helpful to set aside a space for this purpose—a constant reminder of God’s
presence and invitation to prayer. Much like the church is a place set apart that helps us
leave behind work, the to do list, and other parts of our lives, a prayer space in the home can serve the same purpose.
Simply by placing a candle, a crucifix, Bible, icons, statues. paintings and/or other objects
on a piece of cloth can designate a special place. A special bowl or basket on a table will
serve to remind others to pray about a special intention and to place their own petitions or
requests on a piece of paper for putting into the bowl or basket. Lighting the candle becomes an act of stepping into a new time
and place with the Lord, His light against the darkness. Commit to specific times in your
schedule to come together and pray. Be creative with your prayer space and respond
to God’s call to come closer to His constant presence as a family!

What is the Triduum?
The summit of the Liturgical Year is the Easter Triduum—from the evening of Holy Thursday to the evening of Easter Sunday. Though chronologically
three days, they are liturgically one day unfolding for us the unity of Christ's Paschal Mystery.
The single celebration of the Triduum marks the end of the Lenten season, and leads to the Mass of the
Resurrection of the Lord at the Easter Vigil. The liturgical services that take place during the Triduum are:
• Mass of the Lord's Supper • Good Friday of the Lord's Passion
• Mass of the Resurrection of the Lord Taken from USCCB
Holy Week Garden Making a little garden for in your home is a perfect
way for families to work together to create a visual representation of what this time of year is about. Most
of the items needed can be found around the house or yard. This activity does not have to be for just children.
Everyone can enjoy the quiet time spent outdoors in reflection. Here are two ideas to get you started, or search online for your own! Holy Week Garden or
Resurrection Garden
St. Stephen’s Youth Group ‘Live’ Production
Every year, the St Stephen’s Youth Group comes to
Holy Rosary Parish on Wednesday evening of Holy Week to share their theater-style production of the
Living Stations of the Cross, complete with costumes, lighting, narration and music. Covid protocols are preventing them from staging the production this year.
Instead, they are providing a video version based on last year’s production and are sharing it with us

Holy Thursday On the night He was betrayed, Jesus gathered
the Apostles together in the Upper Room. As
you begin this difficult journey with Jesus of
His Passion, Death and Resurrection, begin
with a special dinner—just like Jesus and His
Apostles. And then, do what He
commanded you to do. This year, because of
COVID protocols, we wont be celebrating
this ritual at church. All the more reason to
do so at home!
After your dinner with a spouse/family, wash
one another’s feet. Spend a few moments
reading what Jesus did and reflecting on it —
a model of discipleship, of love, of caring for
one another. Watch this video for
inspiration with children. Then use a pitcher
and wash basin or whatever you have that
will work, taking turns washing one another’s
feet as an act of love and service, in
preparation for the journey you will take from
Holy Thursday to Easter morning. When
you are finished, talk about the other ways
that you serve one another on a daily basis,
and how this is truly a reflection of the love of
God toward one another.
“If anyone wishes to be first…
he will be the servant of all.” Mark 9:35

T r i d u u m A t H o m e
Good Friday “From noon onward, darkness came over the whole land until three in the afternoon. And about three
o’clock Jesus cried out in a loud voice, ‘Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?’ which means, ‘My God, my God, why
have you forsaken me?’ Some of the bystanders who heard it said, ‘This one is calling for Elijah.’ Immediately one of them ran to get a sponge; he soaked
it in wine, and putting it on a reed, gave it to him to drink. But the rest said, ‘Wait, let us see if Elijah comes
to save him.’ But Jesus cried out again in a loud voice, and gave up his spirit.” Matthew 27:45-50
Veneration of the Cross
While we will be able to gather for the Liturgy of the
Lord’s Passion, and we have two options to create
more opportunities, you will not be able to touch or
kiss the Cross this year. Given how experientially important this is, consider doing so on your own in your
home, or together with your family. Gather at your home altar/prayer space, and replicate what takes place
in the Liturgy. Begin with silence, and then read the above Gospel, or the entire Passion Narrative if you
choose. Then, after some silent reflection, the leader should hold up a large crucifix and say “Behold the wood of the Cross, on which hung the salvation of the
world.” Everyone else replies, “Come, let us adore.” As the leader continues to hold up the cross, all kneel in
silent adoration. Celebrating alone, you can fix the crucifix in an appropriate place. The leader then holds
the cross while everyone else reverences it—with a genuflection on this day when Christ is present on the Cross, and then by kissing Jesus or His cross if so
desired. It seems an odd thing to do—but just as Jesus enters into our brokenness, by entering into His we find
salvation and redemption as they lose their sting and power. Someone else holds it for the leader to do so. In
Church, the rubrics tell the priest to take off his shoes before reverencing the Cross—as we are truly in the presence of God. Enthrone the crucifix in an
appropriate place and continue with some silent prayer—something which should permeate the entire
day.

The Exsultet is sung at the beginning of the Easter Vigil. Dating back to the time of Jerome or
Augustine, this beautiful hymn to the Light of Christ rushes forth as He banishes the darkness. It
begins with a call to praise, as we are then reminded of the importance of this night and the praise of
this candle.
Exult, let them exult, the hosts of heaven, exult, let Angel ministers of God exult,
let the trumpet of salvation sound aloud our mighty King's triumph!
Be glad, let earth be glad, as glory floods her,
ablaze with light from her eternal King, let all corners of the earth be glad, knowing an end to gloom and darkness.
Rejoice, let Mother Church also rejoice,
arrayed with the lightning of his glory, let this holy building shake with joy,
filled with the mighty voices of the peoples. Therefore, dearest friends,
standing in the awesome glory of this holy light, invoke with me, I ask you,
the mercy of God almighty, that he, who has been pleased to number me,
though unworthy, among the Levites, may pour into me his light unshadowed, that I may sing this candle's perfect praises.
V. The Lord be with you.
R. And with your spirit. V. Lift up your hearts.
R. We lift them up to the Lord. V. Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
R. It is right and just.
It is truly right and just,
with ardent love of mind and heart and with devoted service of our voice,
to acclaim our God invisible, the almighty Father, and Jesus Christ, our Lord, his Son,
his Only Begotten.
Who for our sake paid Adam's debt to the eternal Father,
and, pouring out his own dear Blood, wiped clean the record of our ancient sinfulness.
These, then, are the feasts of Passover, in which is slain the Lamb, the one true Lamb,
whose Blood anoints the doorposts of believers.
This is the night, when once you led our forebears, Israel's
children, from slavery in Egypt and made them pass dry-shod
through the Red Sea.
This is the night that with a pillar of fire
banished the darkness of sin. This is the night
that even now, throughout the world, sets Christian believers apart from worldly vices
and from the gloom of sin, leading them to grace
and joining them to his holy ones. This is the night,
when Christ broke the prison-bars of death and rose victorious from the underworld.
Our birth would have been no gain,
had we not been redeemed. O wonder of your humble care for us!
O love, O charity beyond all telling, to ransom a slave you gave away your Son!
O truly necessary sin of Adam, destroyed completely by the Death of Christ!
O happy fault that earned so great, so glorious a Redeemer!
O truly blessed night, worthy alone to know the time and hour
when Christ rose from the underworld!
This is the night of which it is written:

Make a Paschal Candle
A new Paschal Candle is lit either at the Great Easter Vigil or on Easter morning. It represents
Christ and the light that his resurrection brings to the world. Traditionally, the candle is
marked with a cross, has five nails inserted into
it for the wounds of Christ, and has several symbols which are explained by the prayer of
the priest when he blesses it:
Christ yesterday and today,
the beginning and the end,
Alpha and Omega,
all time belongs to him,
and all ages;
to him be glory and power,
through every age and for ever. Amen
It is placed near the
ambo, where the Word of God is
proclaimed and comes to us, where it
remains lit from
Easter until the end of Easter Season. The
candle is then kept by the Baptismal Font
and is lit again for
baptisms, and brought back to the sanctuary
for funerals as a
resurrection symbol.
Try making one for your family and setting it in
a place of prominence. Light it first on Easter and then during meals and prayer time.
Perhaps bring out your own Baptism Candles
and light them from the Christ candle. This is something fun to do on Saturday evening in
preparation for Easter, especially if you aren't
able to come to the Easter Vigil as it is only for our RCIA elect, candidates, sponsors and
families this year. Maybe have your own Easter fire outside to light them from, as well,
as we give thanks to God for the light which
banishes the darkness—and which we can carry with us! Let us live in the light of God, and
carry that light into the world on our way to
Heaven.
E x s u l t e t : H y m n t o t h e L i g h t
The night shall be as bright as day, dazzling is the night for me,
and full of gladness.
The sanctifying power of this night dispels wickedness, washes faults away,
restores innocence to the fallen, and joy to mourners,
drives out hatred, fosters concord, and brings down the
mighty.
On this, your night of grace, O holy Father, accept this candle, a solemn offering,
the work of bees and of your servants’ hands, an evening sacrifice of praise, this gift from your most holy Church.
But now we know the praises of this pillar,
which glowing fire ignites for God's honor, a fire into many flames divided,
yet never dimmed by sharing of its light, for it is fed by melting wax, drawn out by mother bees
to build a torch so precious.
O truly blessed night, when things of heaven are wed to those of earth,
and divine to the human. Therefore, O Lord,
we pray you that this candle, hallowed to the honor of your name,
may persevere undimmed, to overcome the darkness of this night.
Receive it as a pleasing fragrance,
and let it mingle with the lights of heaven.
May this flame be found still burning
by the Morning Star: the one Morning Star who never sets,
Christ your Son, who, coming back from death's domain, has shed his peaceful light on humanity,
and lives and reigns for ever and ever. R. Amen.

(In-person)
While the dispensation from the Sunday obligation is still in effect, receiving Holy Communion at Easter is a privilege and obligation treasured by Catholics. The Archbishop strongly encourages all the faithful of the Archdiocese of Seattle to make an “Easter Communion” at any Mass, whether weekday or Sunday, during Easter Time, which continues through Pentecost, May 23, 2021. We have celebrated tens of thousands of Masses without any known spread of COVID-19 as we follow all the best practices to mitigate risk. Give yourself, and Jesus, the gift of Communion with Him through His Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity, this Easter season. Daily Masses on Tuesdays and Fridays are the least populated with only 20-30 people present. Wednesday and Thursday have one or two classes of students so the church is fuller. And on Sunday, we are usually at 80-90% of capacity – defined by social distancing households, which works out to 75-120 people depending on household size. Come and join us in the worship of God!

Archdiocese of Seattle Bishops Speak Out
Against Hatred
March 22, 2021 – It is with heavy hearts that we offer this
statement regarding the recent acts of violence and hatred against our Asian American brothers and sisters. The recent attacks, both
nationally and locally in our own archdiocese, are indicative of a new era of hatred that must come to an end.
Harm against our Asian American brothers and sisters is harm inflicted on everyone. As members of the one Body of Christ, we
wish to acknowledge the pain, the fear, the anger and the stress our Asian American brothers and sisters are currently
experiencing. With a history of racism, violence and suppression, these fears for this community are very real and cannot be
ignored.
Today, the Asian American and Pacific Islander American communities give life to the Northwest and the Catholic Church
of the Archdiocese of Seattle. These brothers and sisters have a long history in this region, dating to the 1800s. They have enriched the life of the Northwest, sharing their traditions and
cultures with our Catholic parishes and our communities. We are so grateful for their presence and the gift of diversity they bring to
our communities.
As interconnected brothers and sisters, made in the image and likeness of God, we implore everyone to respect one another, and
honor the dignity of every person. Jesus said, “I give you a new commandment: love one another. As I have loved you, so you
also should love one another” (John 13:34).
Each of us can make choices to demonstrate how we stand together in love and solidarity against racist acts of hatred. By baptism, we are called to bring more love and understanding into
our world. This starts with our families, our neighbors, our parishes and the larger community. We continue to pray for the
protection, healing and strength of our Asian American brothers and sisters while we stand in solidarity with them and continue to
address the evils of racism.
