| "Resurrection of Christ" by Noel Coypel |
History
Today we celebrate the Resurrection of Christ. When Jesus
rose from the dead, He conquered sin and death. Heaven was opened so that we
can (someday) join Him there, worshiping God in all His glory. Easter (or
Pascha) is the biggest feast and the
holiest day of the year. The traditional greeting for this holy day is, “Christ
is risen!”, which is answered with, “He is risen indeed!”
Activity
It’s appropriate to decorate your home with
flowers. Hang a wreath of lilies on your front door. Prepare a special meal as
well. But be sure to start your festivities with Mass. If you didn’t attend
Vigil Mass last night, go as early as you can this morning so that you can
spend the entire day celebrating Jesus’ great gift to us.
