"...but contemporary Protestant Churches, like the Roman Catholic Church, ..." surely this can't be right


I think they meant to say "but contemporary Protestant Churches hold the three days between Good Friday and Easter to be the holiest days of the calendar, like the Roman Catholic Church." DJ Clayworth 18:49, 5 Apr 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Merger

  • NO MERGE One thing is the Holy Week, and other things are the Processions. The are many many processions, for example, in Spain, and it deserve its own page.User:Grindkore
  • The term Holy Week has meaning outside of the Holy Week Processional and merits its own page. There are rituals and celabrations in many cultures that have little to do with the processional itself. Vineviz 20:24, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Suggest to keep the Holy Week page and remove the Holy Week Processional page. Much of the content on the current Holy Week page should be moved to new subsection Holy Week Processional, and have the Holy Week Processional link to that directly. User:MrDolomite 12:48, 17 March 2006 (EST)
  • 'Disagree (no merge) Holy Week is not a procession in Protestantism. It is Palm Sunday + Holy Thursday + Good Friday + Easter. MPS 20:42, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] NO Merge

I agree with Vineviz - Holy Week and Holy Week Processions are entirely different, and the former, at least, should have its own page.

[edit] Holy Week Activities

I added a summary of what the activities of Holy Week are and their significances to the Catholic Faith. They are a bit diessarranged though... hope one of you guys could fix it. --Jonasespelita 13:07, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

Fixed the formatting. Just to check: this isn't copied and pasted from anywhere, is it? --Suitov 11 Aug 06

[edit] More detail for Orthodox Section

Could someone organize the section of Orthodox Holy Week a little better? It lists each service, but has no in depth coverage except for only a couple points. The Catholic section is divided into a section for each day with a lot more detail.

Additionally, the last line in the Orthodox section has a bunch of nonesense that I can't even come close to making out. --66.75.246.114 00:52, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Western Church?

How about Roman Catholic? I'm in a Western church, I'm evangelical/nondenom, and we don't have eucharists and all that. The Person Who Is Strange 01:52, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Holy Week in Western Church

It should read: Holy Week in Western Catholic Church or Roman Catholic. The practices it describes are uniquely Catholic. Another section should be included for Holy Week in Western Protestant Churches. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.150.175.7 (talk) 23:04, 10 April 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Article vandalized

This article of Holy Thursday seems to be vandalized with repeated words of "Insert non-formatted text here". Can someone fix this?--Angeldeb82 03:43, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
