Holy Thursday celebrates the institution of Christ Himself in the Eucharist and of the institution of the sacerdotal priesthood




Holy Thursday celebrates the institution of Christ Himself in the Eucharist and of the institution of the sacerdotal priesthood. With the disciples, Christ is the self-offered Passover Victim, and every ordained priest presents this same sacrifice.

The action of the Church on this night also witnesses to the Church's esteem for Christ's Body present in the consecrated Host in the Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament. No Mass will be celebrated again in the Church until the Easter Vigil proclaims the Resurrection.
