My Holy Week went like this...

I have been very busy.  Very busy.
.
For the record, remind me not to serve at all of the Triduum Masses without proper sleep.  It was tiring.  Yup, I served at Holy Thursday, Good Friday, and the Easter Vigil. Holy Thursday and Good Friday are both about 2 hours each, and the Vigil was 3 hours, not counting the hour of practice in the morning on all 3 days.  There were 3 servers who served all 3 Masses: me and 2 sisters.  The only switch on the schedule was that my friend served on Holy Thursday and Good Friday, but not the Easter Vigil.  Our pastor told us that someone from Long Island, N.Y., approached him after the Good Friday service and told him,"Father, I was here last night and today, and it was very prayerful, but what made it for me were the servers.  They were just so attentive to detail and reverent and prayerful."  That was the nicest compliment I think I've ever gotten for my serving (and I've gotten quite a few.)
