Holy Week Schedule 2010

Mar 1, 2010 under Uncategorized | 33 Comments

Since I still don’t have a post for today (no products to review yet), I’ll just make this Monday post a very quick one. Sissy has been asking me when is Holy Week, so here, Holy Week Schedule for 2010.

Ash Wednesday happened last February 17, 2010.. so we count forty days later or just browse the net.LOL

Palm Sunday (and I hope I can attend a mass this time, last time we were on our way to Baguio.. I am dying to test my photography skill on this day) falls on March 28 2010.

Holy Monday is March 29, 2010

Holy Tuesday is March 30, 2010

Holy Wednesday (where a procession is held in our town every year.. and I also wanna be there so I can put my DSLR into action… can’t wait!) falls on March 31, 2010.

Maundy Thursday is April 1, 2010. This is the time where the washing of the feet of the Apostles are remembered through a mass and a reenaction. Also, on Thursday night, people visit churches, a tradition known as Visita Iglesia. It also interesting to note that people from Metro Manila, walk to visit the famous Antipolo church, some I knew came as far as Quezon City and Mandaluyong.

Good Friday falls on April 2, Black Saturday is on April 3 and Easter Sunday is on April 4.

I love Holy Week, not for any other reason but for art’s sake. I believe Holy Week is one of the most artistic week in the Philippines. This is when faith, religion, arts, culture and passion come together to create a history. Eye super loveit!
