Holy Saturday
This is the day of silence. The silence which prepares for the eloquence of Easter Vigil. Holy Saturday, indeed, holds a unique place in the Christian liturgical calendar, characterized by a profound silence and solemnity as it is the day between the sorrow of Good Friday and the joy of Easter Sunday. It is a time of waiting and reflection, commemorating the day Jesus lay in the tomb after his crucifixion. This silence serves as a period of mourning and anticipation, preparing the faithful for the celebration of the resurrection during the Easter Vigil. The Easter Vigil itself is marked by the return of light and sound, symbolizing the triumph of life and light over death and darkness, culminating in the celebration of Jesus Christ’s resurrection.
