Dear Parents,
Easter is the high point of our Church year. The season of Easter lasts for fifty days ending with the celebration of Pentecost. Easter is a time of hope and a time of new beginnings. All around us we see signs of the new life Jesus brings to us at Easter. The paschal candle is lit for Easter and will stay lit for every Mass during the fifty days of the Easter season. It is a sign that the risen Christ is here with us. Jesus is the light of our lives and we are to follow that light.
Thank you, God, for the gift of new life through the resurrection of your son, Jesus. May we live our faith in the risen Lord in all we say and in all we do. May our hearts be reborn and filled with joy and hope. We ask this through your Holy Spirit of love who lives in our hearts. Help us to live always as Easter people. Amen.
Maureen Murtagh, Director of Religious Education
