Maundy Thursday begins the Triduum, or the great Three Days at the heart of the church’s liturgical year.
The Triduum begins with Maundy Thursday and ends with the feast of the Resurrection on Easter Day. This means that the three days are treated as one liturgy.
After the Maundy Thursday liturgy, it is customary to “strip” the altars in preparation for Good Friday. This removal of ornaments and cloths from the church is concluded by the extinguishing of the lights and ending the service in silence as we contemplate Jesus’ total gift of himself on the cross.
