Lenten Liturgical Lines

LENTEN LITURGICAL LINES

• Lent runs from Ash Wednesday until the Mass of the Lord’s Supper on Holy Thursday.
• Ash Wednesday and the days of Holy Week take precedence over all solemnities and feasts.  The memorials of saints are observed as optional.
• Alleluia is not sung or said until the Easter Vigil.
• The altar is not decorated with flowers and the organ is played only to support the singing, except on the 4^th Sunday (Laetare Sunday).
• The Apostles’ Creed may replace the Nicene Creed at Mass.
