Hello, Wisdom.
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
Shouts of joy ring out from our churches and burst forth from our hearts on this Easter day. Christ is risen! In a world filled with violence and division, we turn our focus to the ultimate celebration. The resurrection overcomes the darkness of our world and the darkness of sin within us. Christ is alive! And because of that, our spirits are also alive. Alleluia!
A Prayer of Celebration
Join us in this prayer of celebration from the Liturgy of the Hours for Easter morning.
God our Father, creator of all,
today is the day of Easter joy.
This is the morning on which the Lord appeared to men
who had begun to lose hope
and opened their eyes to what the scriptures foretold:
that first he mist die, and then he would rise
and ascend into his Father's presence.
May the risen Lord
breathe on our minds and open our eyes
that we may know him in the breaking of bread,
and follow him in his risen life.
Amen.
Products to help you celebrate.
A very blessed Easter to you all, from your friends at Franciscan Media.
