Bishop Richard F. Reidy celebrated his first Holy Thursday Mass of the Lord’s Supper at the Cathedral of Saint Patrick in Norwich on April 2, marking the beginning of the Sacred Triduum in the Diocese of Norwich. In a liturgy rich with reverence and meaning, clergy and faithful gathered to commemorate the institution of the Holy Eucharist and the priesthood, while the washing of the feet offered a moving reminder of Christ’s humility and call to loving service. In his homily, Bishop Reidy invited the faithful to reflect more deeply on the love of Christ made visible in the Eucharist and in lives poured out for others. The evening called all present to enter more fully into the mystery of Holy Week and to remain close to the Lord as the Church begins its solemn journey through His Passion, Death and Resurrection.
