Cleanup completed[edit]

I've updated and standardized the article on its bullet points, noted certain practices in Roman Catholicism regarding RCIA (having participated in and observed this directly, confirming with notes from official sources), and expanded on links and relevant data, hopefully not repeating additional data found on alternate links. I have removed the cleanup tag, but if there is something specific that isn't up to sniff, please note it here and return the cleanup tag. --Spencerian 15:54, 2 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Pascal Triduum[edit]

I believe the main title of this article should be Paschal Triduum. More Christians refer to this as Paschal Triduum than any other name, including Easter Triduum. ludahai 魯大海 14:48, 3 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

unveiling of statues and images[edit]

In this article, I have found:

"If statues and images have been veiled during the last two weeks of Lent, they are unveiled, without ceremony, before the Easter Vigil service begins."

There is a reference provided, and when I went to it I found (after the reference to unveiling of crucifixes):

"All other images are unveiled shortly before the Mass of the Easter Vigil."

I do not understand the meaning of this. In the pre-1970 Roman Catholic missal, this unveiling takes place during the singing of "Gloria in Excelsis" at the Easter Vigil Mass; at the same time, the bells are rung and the organ played (after they had fallen silent when the "Gloria in Excelsis" ended on Holy Thursday).

(As for crucifixes: Yes, a crucifix is ceremoniously unveiled during the Good Friday services, and after the service, other crucifixes are unveiled without ceremony; this is part of "housekeeping", which includes dismantling the repository.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.63.16.82 (talk) 15:22, 19 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I see no contradiction between "All other images are unveiled shortly before the Mass of the Easter Vigil" (when read in the context that veiling is no longer obligatory) and "If statues and images have been veiled during the last two weeks of Lent, they are unveiled, without ceremony, before the Easter Vigil service begins." The present Roman Missal says, under "Fifth Sunday of Lent": "The practice of covering crosses and images throughout the church from this Sunday may be observed, if the Conference of Bishops so decides. Crosses remain covered until the end of the celebration of the Lord's Passion on Good Friday, but images remain covered until the beginning of the Easter Vigil."

To be more precise, unveiling during the Gloria was the rule only in the 1955-1969 Roman Missal. In edititions earlier than 1955 there was no such rule. Esoglou (talk) 15:53, 19 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Black Saturday[edit]

"Also called Black Saturday, is a vigil service that is held after nightfall on Holy Saturday ...." I've never heard the phrase "Black Saturday". I'll take your word, and the reference, that it has been used for Holy Saturday. But is it used for the vigil service? i think those are two different things.--Richardson mcphillips (talk) 15:08, 7 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
