Tune in here to this Friday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show!
We're joined by Father Bill Nicholas from Corpus Christi Church in Evansville, Indiana to discuss the significance of Holy Thursday and the beginning of the Easter Triduum. Father Bill explains that while Lent technically ends, the Church enters the Paschal Fast—three days of continuous worship leading to Easter. He breaks down how Holy Thursday, Good Friday, and the Easter Vigil were once a single celebration and are now observed as one extended act of worship.
Brett and Father Bill reflect on the emotional impact of Good Friday, especially the symbolic absence of Christ in the empty tabernacle.
Father Bill also shares the joyful news that 14 people, including an entire family, will be received into the Catholic Church at the Easter Vigil. He closes the segment by sharing resources like his website, podcast, and livestream details, and offers a blessing to listeners as they prepare to celebrate the Resurrection.
