There will be the traditional Holy Thursday devotion of having adoration of the Blessed Sacrament from after Mass until Midnight. This is the day Our Lord suffered in the Garden after the Last Supper when He asked His disciples to watch and pray with Him. At midnight the Blessed Sacrament is removed from the church to represent Our Lord’s arrest and imprisonment.
