I was educated by the Benedictines 1942-1953. It was like singing of angels. Holy Saturday finished at midday

This was wonderful. I'm 68 and now realise why my father only received Holy Communion once a year and why in England we ended our fast at 12 noon..

I was an altar boy from 1948 to 1957 and I remember the ceremonies of Holy Week and just about like the ones shown the schedule was about the same with a few minor changes to the schedule. The washing of the priests feet was, at one parish in Hartford Connecticut, St Lawrence O'Toole, done to only 4 priests assigned to the parish. At my other parish St Patrick's in East Hampton, Connecticut, it was eliminated for the reason the parish had only two priests. As an altar boy we were rather busy during Holy Week, preparing, rehearsing and doing the ceremonies. One thing, on Good Friday, at the Stations of the Cross in the afternoon at 3 PM all Altar boys and Priests were required to be there it was a beautiful procession around the Church and there was not a seat in the whole Church. The veneration of the Cross was done at this time. Holy Saturday was a very long day with the various ceremonies, again beautiful as well as Easter Sunday. I definitely would like to see it brought back to the Church.

Thank you Dr. Taylor. Part of me yearns for what has been robbed from us. I'm so grateful for our beautiful Catholic Faith. I can't imagine how beautiful it will be in heaven. This is just a glimpse and it's so overwhelmingly sublime. Thank you for educating us with these videos. May Our Lord Jesus Christ and Our Lady reward you abundantly for your commitment.

Back in the day people actually took the days off from work and were dedicated to really living the Holy Week and all it’s liturgical services. Unfortunately, even if we are off from work, there are no services until late in the day, so the entire day goes by without keeping the Holy Days in mind. I read my Missal and all the services they had during the day in the Traditional Liturgy. I found a schedule of Holy Week in 1918 and was truly dedicated to keep the Holy Week, holy.

"Working class" people in an industrialized society have never been able to "take the days off from work" during Holy Week .. No work, no pay, no food. Maybe, just maybe they might get Good Friday afternoon off -- If the majority of the employees were Christian. In a rural society services would be held at mid-day (so that the essential feeding, watering (and milking) the animals could be done early. In the months of March/April Europe/N. America) it is too wet to plough and other chores could be done after the midday break -- before the evening chores of feeding/watering/milking and securing the livestock are done

Hi, I am 55 years old and for at least the last 15 years I have asked Holy Friday off and my normal days off are Saturday and Sunday so I dedicate these three days to be at church as much as possible, in adoration and reflection of the Passion of our Lord. We actually begin the night before because our parish keeps Jesus in a small Tabernacle, in a garden like setting so we accompany him through the night and meditate how he is put in prison so we remain with him. Different parishioners take turns throughout the night. On Friday this continues until 3pm. We continue to have adoration in the garden while in church confessions are taking place for 24 hrs (9pm Thursday to 9pm Friday. After the 3pm mass our Adoration Chapel is transformed into a tomb and from then until 3pm on Saturday, we accompany Jesus in the tomb. This is a very precious time of meditation in his suffering. Then I go to Easter Vigil at night and to Easter Mass on Sunday. I love this special time.

Thank you Dr Marshall! All of the pre 1955 traditions are wonderful however getting NO churches to accept them will take many many prayers.

Mass before Vatican 2 was beautiful

I much prefer the way things were back in 1939. I remember some of the things but not all. Today, on Good Friday, I did not receive Communion because our Parish Priest explained what you did on this topic. I did kiss the crucified Jesus on the cross as my Spiritual Communion. Thank you for this lesson.

Evening liturgies are nice for people with jobs. But I'd take anything that wasn't the Novus Ordo.

Just completed my first Triduum of the Pre-55 with the ICKSP in Preston, England. Truly beautiful.

Thanks. Wish we could turn back the clock. Beautiful, respectful.

I appreciate the evening mass since I work days and can’t make the weekday mornings.

Holy Triduum to you & your family !! ❤🌾❤🌾❤️ ✝️ ❤️🌾❤️🌾❤️ The changes made in 1951 through 1955 led to more changes, including the liturgy. Consequently, this opened the door to the (disasterous) changes that took place post Vatican II. One can argue that the changes 51-55 were reasonable. However, the precedent was set for change. It was now easier to change the rubrics, and liturgical prayers, going forward. Now we have the Bishop in White wanting to remove the Tridentine Mass everywhere. 🙏✝️🙏

Here in NZ Good Friday all shops supermarkets workplaces are closed, still thankfully holding onto that tradition, bar fast food outlets and gas stations remaining open with emergency services. We had stations of the cross Friday morning, with mass of the Pre sanctified 3pm, and veneration of the cross.. The long Holy Saturday easter vigil starts at 6pm ending at 9pm.. Easter Sunday, morning mass with the blessings of food baskets then.. I do like the Holy Saturday pre 1955 time table..

I agree with no communion on Good Friday - if one is really living in the spirit of the Passion, Death & Resurrection of Jesus, then it only stands to reason that He has died, and we are desolate until the Resurrection. I like the old Tradition being more emphasis in the right places and more meaningful. God bless!

I like the pre-1955 better. It's so prayerful! Not that we can't pray at home, but there's something about going to the church to pray through the Triduum. My husband would probably plan for time off work if we went back to this.

I would love to see it return to morning, and the old ways.

I appreciate this too, but he's noting some cultural practices as if they were universally practiced here. Just one example: not all parishes and dioceses brought Easter Baskets to the church for blessing and certainly not all practised as he reports with liquor. Much depended on the ethnic backgrounds of believers! Another not mentioned: many Catholics in certain dioceses visited all the churches in their community on Holy Thursday, but that was not mentioned. In some of those communities, people would do the stations of the cross at each church they visited. That was ok in smaller communities with 1-3 churches, but not in larger communities with up to 10-12 churches. I don't know how that was managed! There were no Masses at any time of the year in the afternoon and evening in any of the communities my family lived in. In many parishes today, the services on Holy Thursday thru Saturday are really the extended version on the Liturgy of the Hours and everyone does leave the church in silence. It's beautifully spiritual. Otherwise, a nice comparison of past/present. In the past at least during the 1940s-50s: morning services thru 11 am only: none on Saturday and Sunday evenings.

The thing that struck me about this Dr. Marshall is it was the last Holy Week in London before the start of WWII.

In Catholic Cantons of Switzerland, during lent, theaters, cinemas, dancing halls and bars had been closed until easter Monday. No Music, no entertainment! Window displays were hidden and thus mostly covered with dark clothes. On Holy Friday everybody had been working as normal and specifically housewifes cleaning the houses. In between one went to church for the litanies. Bells were silenced. As children we kew that angels had brought them all to Rome. In churches, holy items and paintings had been covered with dark violet towels. On Easter Sunday all this disappeared and altars were covered with the most beautyfull flower bouquets.

I imagine there is even more symbolism in the times of Holy Saturday. I imagine something with the symbolism of Jesus entering limbo and brining the Old Testament saints to heaven. Tradition is so beautiful and meaningful! Thank you Dr Marshall!

I was born 1955, November 19th

Thank you for this exposé on the pre-1955 practice. This is insightful for showing where the lines between the Divine Office and the Mass became blurred, which foreshadowed (in my view) the eventual deletion of several offices altogether, and the eventual conflation of the Easter Vigil as if it were like a Midnight Mass on Christmas. In actuality, since Easter is the higher of the two feasts, it makes sense that what precedes it is unique, hence the transferring of offices to different times, increase in service times, and so forth. I was in the schola at Mater Dei from 2016-2018 and participated in two 1962 Holy Weeks, and then chanted for the ICKSP in the years which followed, with this being our 3rd year celebrating according to the pre-1955 rite. Each year we grow in our appreciation for the pre-1955 rite. This is the first year we are celebrating the Easter Vigil at 5pm, rather than close to midnight. While midnight Easter Vigils at Mater Dei and St. Joseph Shrine were profoundly inspirational to me in my early 20s, as I enter my 30s as a husband and father, I see the value in living the rite as it was lived for generations before us. This video is the missing link that connects the beauty of the rituals with practicality in day-to-day life. If Catholic parents could get the days of Holy Week off from work, this 1939 Westminster schedule provides everything they would need to nourish their souls during this solemn week while still attending well to their duties of state.

Just had the opportunity in London to participate in a "pre-1955 rubrics 'Holy Saturday' Divine Liturgy of the Roman Rite , with full accompaniment and all elements presented exactly as would have been in my childhood during 'pre-Vatican II years !

It's a beautiful service.

Yes. I forgot to mention that. Pretty cool.

In the Eastern Orthodox Church, the Divine Liturgy for the Mystical Supper also occurs in the morning on Thursday. Afterwards during the night the matins service for Friday will be said at night (12 passion gospels service). For Byzantine Catholics that I’ve seen. The Divine Liturgy for the mystical supper occurs during the evening. Which may mean that the matins service may be omitted, modified for 6 passion gospels or do the full 12). A little difference between Byzantine Catholics and the orthodox.

I prefer the old times along with of course the pre 1955 liturgy. Never knew about the penitential shift. Love the 12 prophecies especially 1 & 12

Im ok with the mass for holy Thursday being later in the night on Thursday. No communion on Friday is consistent with what our Byzantine Catholic rite brethren still do and so is the blessing of the baskets. I like the traditional Good Friday and Holy Saturday schedule

In the Maronite rite we don't take communion on Good Friday

One thing to remember when looking at schedules like this is that we're seeing what was done 1) At a cathedral 2) In a major city 3) At a time when culture still retained much more Catholic influence. Under these circumstances you have an abundance of clergy, servers, singers, sacristans, etc. to even make this possible, and many laymen may have even had these days as holidays from work. I suspect things were different at smaller rural parishes (certainly in terms of having pontifical functions) which I'd think in many ways are more analogous to all but the very biggest urban traditional parishes (or maybe someplace like St. Mary's KS if they did the pre-55) we have today.

RE: the penitential shift When I attended a Ukrainian Catholic parish for a few years, the priest explained that the change in times for the Office and other liturgical rites was to indicate that the Deicide that was occurring had thrown Nature into complete confusion. Up was down, day was night, etc.

The 1955 Holy Week reforms was an attempt to restored the sacred services to their proper liturgical time which was always observed in the early church. The Easter Vigil was a night service beginning at Midnight on Easter Sunday. It made no sense when it was anticipated and celebrated on holy Saturday morning at 6:00 AM. Most Catholics did not attend the pre 1955 rites of Holy Week, nor did most local parishes celebrate the elaborate ceremonials of cathedrals and monasteries, but opted for the simply forms of these rites. The reform was an attempt to make the official liturgy assessable to the people, rather than non liturgical and pious devotional rites which had become the norm.
