    EASTER is LIFE: it is enveloped by LOVE, embraced by INTIMACY, caressed by FAITH, and filled with ENERGY! The source of that LIFE is the RISEN CHRIST! As we celebrate RESURRECTION SUNDAY, let us proclaim this statement of FAITH:

    We rejoice as EASTER PEOPLE because God has claimed us, named us, loved us, and renewed us as a RECONCILING CHURCH. We celebrate the gift of the RISEN CHRIST, the gift of NEW LIFE, of NEW HOPE. With this FLAME, our hearts burn with joy that comes in surrendering our lives to the one who calls each of us by name; the one who moves and stirs within us, and helps us to create a heart of love, a family of harmony, a community of unity, and world of peace and justice.

    This LIGHT – the RISEN CHRIST, is with us this EASTER SUNDAY and during the season of EASTER, a sign and call for us to LIVE ANEW, and to SING ANEW: “CHRIST IS RISEN, ALLELULIA, ALLELUIA!” So, today, RESURRECTION DAY, don’t worry, be HAPPY!

    THE EASTER OCTAVE Sunday, April 5 - Sunday, April 12, 2020

    Eastertime lasts fifty days: seven weeks of seven days (seven equals Biblical perfection) plus one day: perfection plus! Like an eight-day Jewish wedding, or a child who can’t bear to let go of Christmas, birthdays, and school vacation, the Church celebrates the Easter Octave: “the marriage of heaven and earth,” as the Vigil calls Jesus’ resurrection; our new members’ baptismal rebirth; our renewal of baptismal vows; our hearts’ “divine vacation” (Latin vacare, “to be empty”), newfound time and space for love of God and neighbor. Make home an Easter garden! Adorn the dining table with a pillar candle (your “paschal candle”), a bowl full of water (ideally, from the parish’s baptismal font), a vase of flowers or bowl of sprouting grain with Easter eggs. Even non-singers can handle the three-fold Gospel Alleluia! Let that be your grace before meals, perhaps with a prayer recalling Emmaus (Luke 24:13-35): “Be known to us, Risen Lord Jesus, as you were to the first disciples, in your word, in the breaking of bread, and in everyone we meet.” —Peter Scagnelli, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
