Holy Week is at the very end of Lent, it consists of Palm/Passion Sunday (since 1970), Holy Monday, Holy Tuesday, Holy Wednesday, and Holy Thursday. Lent ends in the evening of Holy Thursday with the beginning of the Mass of the Lord's Supper, which, itself, begins the shortest season of the liturgical year: the Easter Triduum
- all of which is ONE LONG liturgy, thus at the end of the Maundy
Thursday Mass (Mass of the Lord's Supper) there is no dismissal. The Triduum
continues with the Passion of the Lord celebrated in the afternoon on Friday, which consists of the Passion, the Intercessions, the veneration of the Cross, and Holy Communion, given from reserved Hosts from Holy Thursday. The Triduum
ends with the Easter Vigil which begins AFTER dark on Holy Saturday with the lighting of the Easter Fire: Jesus the Light of the World has arisen from the dead! The Triduum
and Holy Week are over, Easter has begun, it runs for fifty days until Pentecost Sunday with the coming of the Holy Spirit.
