Holy Thursday is the day on which Christians commemorate Jesus's Last Supper. It's the day before Good Friday, which marks Jesus's crucifixion and death. Holy Thursday is the Thursday of Holy Week, which is the week before Easter, from Palm Sunday to Holy Saturday.

In many Western Christian traditions Midnight Mass is the first liturgy of Christmastide that is celebrated on the night of Christmas Eve, traditionally beginning at midnight when Christmas Eve gives way to Christmas Day. This popular Christmas custom is a jubilant celebration of the Mass or Service of Worship in honor of the Nativity of Jesus.
