Holy Thursday Solemn Procession - Manila Cathedral-Basilica

[steelersfanhawaii]

Thanks for the suggestion, I will add "Maundy" to the list of tags, that should get more hits :)

[CristianoRomae1986]

They don't have things like this in America. It is much more solemn where Catholicism is strong and widespread, and solemnity is preferred than modernist practice.

I hope you could someday consider to change HOLY THURSDAY to MAUNDY THURSDAY in your title so that it can expand the search on YouTube.

Is it clapping we hear in the background?

[CristianoRomae1986]

@Qcumber

It's a clapper, used by medieval monks in the old days as a penitential sound for people to atone for their sins.

[Qcumber]

@CristianoRomae1986 Thanks a lot. In Europe, this clapper was used during the period when the bells were silent before Easter and supposedly gone to Rome.

we kneel because we believe that Jesus Christ is present in the Eucharist. as a respect we kneel when the Blessed Sacrament passes by. its also the same during Benediction where the Blessed Sacrament is exposed, as respect, we kneel and recite the prayers for Benediction.

Holy week is the COMMEMORATION of Christ's Passion and death. thus, the term "patay ang Diyos" is just a commemoration that Jesus died on that day.

Holy week 2011 is fast approaching. April 22,2011

God Bless!

I absolutly love the hymm and the organ music, but most of all the Lord Jesus Christ, present in all the taberncles of the world.

[FrancisTradi]

[acorntechnique]

I beautiful building a service,

I look forward to seeing it when I come in July.

I confess I had to laugh when I saw the two large screens with the hymn lyrics.

It seems that not even Manila Cathedral can escape the Filipino obsession with Karaoke

You can't help but kneel and adore when you see the Blessed Sacrament. Beautiful.

[shakaz01]

[bordz120891]

Ancient liturgy of the Church.

[milopichu11]

exactly. But it's worth it.

[thethomasian17]

i thought the organ was not to be used during holy week. i our parish in tuguegarao they use the organ every good friday.

[eriesal]

Patay daw ang Dios pero namamatay ba ang Dios tuwing Biyernes Santo?

[emtcater]

Under the GIRM, the church bells are rung during the Gloria on Holy Thursday, and remain silent until the Gloria on Holy Saturday.

[alnez27]

i think bells are not allowed during that time that was called the matraka

[skrstn]

[wengdick]

isang pagkain, isang katawan, isang bayan by lucio san pedro

[flingboi22]

[sichree23]

Hey UK! Great music. What are thoes clappers; they are irritating.

[johnkota]

Clappers are liturgical vessels that been substituted for the chimes, it has a liturgical role during the evening of the lords last supper.

[roldan114]

Clappers are not liturgical vessels. They are movable metals placed on planks of wood that rotated and is used to symbolize the sorrow felt by the Church at Holy Thursday. It takes the place which be rung on Easter vigil to signify the Church's joy at Christ's resurrection.

[jamassey4]

What is the title for the first song they sing? The tune sounds so familiar but I just can't place it...

[roldan114]

Purihin si Hesus sa Sakramento

[wengdick]

[slappichubutt13579]

Alam nyo, the clappers sound like firecrackers kung nasa malayo. Pero, Ok lang
