I love the Triduum and, although I miss celebrating in a parish where there are adult catechumens preparing for Baptism, and enthusiasm of all who gather at our Motherhouse is worth all the work we put into it. I love the fact that the Triduum is one feast that spans three days. There always seems to be an energy that gains momentum as the Three Days flow into one another.
An added plus is that some of our sisters organize a Good Friday Peace Vigil from 12:00-3:00 on the street outside our Motherhouse. The pictures that follow are of today's Peace Vigil. 
What you can’t see in these pictures is the neighborly spirit that permeated Cambridge Street throughout the Good Friday Peace Vigil. Between 12:00 and 3:00, over seventy sisters, associates, and friends carried posters with messages of peace as those who passed by sounded their horns in solidarity. This show of support came from private vehicles as well as police cars, fire trucks, busses, ambulances, and taxis to name but a few. At one point City Councilor, Mark Ciommo, stopped by to offer support. This vigil began and ended with prayer. Cambridge Street is a busy place so throughout the Peace Vigil there was a feeling that we were reaching out to the Dear Neighbor in a very concrete way.
