The main sanctuary lamp is extinguished at the end of Mass on Holy Thursday. However, the blessed sacrament is held in reserve in a separate chapel or on a separate smaller altar and a lamp is kept burning there. It is extinguished after the communion service on Good Friday and the main lamp remains dark until after blessing of the new fire at the Easter Vigil Mass.
