Holy Thursday begins the Holy Triduum -- one liturgy stretching across three sacred days. In his homily, Fr. Wilson reflects on one word from the collect that has the power to transform the way we experience the Mass: participate. Drawing on Sacrosanctum Concilium and the vision of the Second Vatican Council, he explores the difference between active and actual participation, and why the Mass is not something we simply attend but something we are called to live.
