Diocese of Nashik
My dear Collaborators,
I am writing these lines in continuation of the clergy meeting held on Thursday, February 19, 2026 when I made a reference to the celebration of the Paschal Triduum and the guidelines to be observed during Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and the Easter Vigil Service.
Please find enclosed the guidelines for each of the days mentioned above. I wish to inform you that these guidelines need to be followed and strictly adhered to during the Triduum Services in the parishes and/or parish units/shrines and places of worship in our Diocese. I am sure you are aware that the Liturgy of the Triduum Services should give our people a deeper experience of the Passion, Death and Resurrection of Jesus. For this reason, I have taken the trouble to prepare these Guidelines. Needless to say, I do not want any aberrations to arise during the Triduum Services.
I am confident you will follow the Liturgical Guidelines during the Sacred Triduum.
God bless you and with every good wish,
Yours in Christ,
✠Barthol Barretto
Bishop, Diocese of Nashik
