Monday of Holy Week 2010

More Catholic Holy Week "Word Nerd":
+ On Palm Sunday, the Western Church gives out palm branches. But what about your friends who are Byzantine or Ukrainian Catholics. What do they get?

+ The four Gospels give us four accounts of the Passion. Which do you think was the first written?

+ What name does Wednesday of Holy Week have? Not often used today.

+ At the Easter Vigil, the priest or deacon solemnly intones "Lumen Christi". What does it mean? How many times is it sung?

+ There is a fertility symbol used at the Easter Vigil. Anyone want to take a crack at this one?

+ When is Low Sunday?

I continue to pray for you during this week.
