Turin’s Cathedral will be making the image of its Holy
Shroud available through televison and social media channels on Holy Saturday.
By Vatican News
On Saturday 11 April, there will be an extraordinary
veneration of the Shroud in Turin Cathedral, which will be broadcast live on
Italian television and through social media platforms.
From 5pm on Holy Saturday, Archbishop Nosiglia of Turin will
preside over a long liturgy of prayer in the chapel, and “during that time of
contemplation” the image of the Holy Shroud will be made available to the whole
world.
The Archbishop explained that this is being done to support
the faithful in this time of the coronavirus pandemic and to ask Christ for
“the grace to overcome evil as He did on the Cross”.
"Stronger is the love. This is the Easter proclamation
that the Shroud brings us to relive and that fills our hearts with gratitude
and faith", said Archbishop Nosiglia.
“The love with which Jesus gave us his life and that we
celebrate during Holy Week is stronger than every suffering, every illness,
every contagion, every trial and discouragement. Nothing and no one can ever
separate us from this love, because it is forever faithful and unites us to him
with an indissoluble bond".
The media broadcasting the liturgy will also host a moment
of dialogue and reflection at the end of the prayer, with the intervention of
experts and witnesses.
