Inspired by [my answer here](https://christianity.stackexchange.com/a/104930/10672) , I wonder how the LDS church celebrates Jesus's Passion, Crucifixion, and Resurrection in terms of liturgies and/or practices during the Holy Week. How does it compare with the Catholic liturgies for the [Paschal Triduum](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paschal_Triduum) which include the following liturgies to help the faithful to internalize what Jesus went through during the defining moments of his life since we believers are **in union with Him** in suffering, death, and resurrection? - **Holy Thursday mass** on Thursday evening (the stripping of the altar followed with a solemn procession to the [altar of repose](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altar_of_repose)) - **Good Friday mass** (without the glory and without consecration) - **Easter Vigil** (focusing on the Paschal candle being the light that shines in the darkness) - **Easter Sunday** (celebrating the resurrection with special readings, hymns, and prayers, first day of the [Easter Octave](https://www.catholicculture.org/commentary/easter-octave/)) See this article [*Liturgical Highlights: Holy Week and the Sacred Triduum*](https://www.catholicculture.org/commentary/liturgical-highlights-holy-week-and-sacred-triduum/) for details and examples on how the faithful prepare for the liturgies at home and at church.
