The Easter Triduum is the most sacred time of the Christian year. From Holy Thursday evening through Easter Sunday, the Assumption community is invited to gather in prayer and reflection as we walk together through the Passion, Death, and Resurrection of Jesus Christ. All students, faculty, staff, families, and friends are warmly welcome to participate in these special liturgies at the Chapel of the Holy Spirit.
For true Christians, faith is not just something we believe — it is something we live. And yet, stepping out of our comfort zones to serve others is never easy. This mission trip to Kenya is an invitation to do exactly that — to live the Gospel through action, by serving our brothers and sisters with humility, compassion, and love.
The Easter (or Paschal) Triduum from Holy Thursday evening to Easter Sunday are the most important days of the Christian year.
All members of the Assumption community are welcome to participate in prayer and worship for these days in the Chapel of the Holy Spirit.

Coralis, a Maryknoll missioner, chose to spend her three-month “rest” period before renewing her commitment to Maryknoll in El Paso volunteering as close to Gaza as possible. She traveled to Beirut, where she served at a center run by the Jesuits. Coralis left for Lebanon in early January and was scheduled to return to El Paso today. Well, war broke out last week. The center where she lives and works has been turned into a shelter for foreign workers.
