Holy Saturday in the Catholic Church is a day of quiet anticipation and reflection, marking the day Jesus’ body lay in the tomb between his death on Good Friday and his resurrection on Easter Sunday. It’s a day of prayer and fasting.
There is no Mass today. We sit in darkness. Our hearts feel the emptiness and loss of Jesus. We witness a world in transition.
We wait in anticipation of the light of Christ’s resurrection.
We wait.
This evening is the Easter Vigil, a major liturgical celebration. The Vigil marks the beginning of Easter symbolizing the passage from death to life, darkness to light, despair to hope.
