QUESTIONS OF THE WEEK

Question for children: What sacrifices do you make for those whom you love?

Question for youth: Even the disciples had a hard time understanding Jesus’ resur-rection—it is that surprising! What does resurrection mean to you? What does East-er mean to you? Question for adults: In what ways has God called you to die in Christ? How is this expressed in your own life?

Quote for the Easter Season

The Womb of the Earth Gives Birth

by Hesychius of Jerusalem, died around 450 A.D.

“Hidden first in a womb of flesh, He sanctified human birth by His own birth. Hidden afterward in the womb of the earth, He gave life to the dead by His resurrection. Suffering, pain and sighs have now fled away. For who has known the mind of God, or who has been His counse-lor if not the Word made flesh who was nailed to the cross, who rose from the dead and who was taken up into heaven? This day brings a message of joy: it is the day of the Lord’s resurrection when, with Himself, He raised up the race of Adam. Born for the sake of human beings, He rose from the dead with them. On this day paradise is opened by the risen one, Adam is restored to life and Eve is consoled. On this day the divine call is heard, the king-dom is prepared, we are saved and Christ is adored. On this day, when He had trampled death under foot, made the tyrant a prisoner and despoiled the underworld, Christ ascended into heaven as a king in victory, as a ruler in glory, as an invincible charioteer. He said to the Father, ‘Here am I, O God, with the children you have given Me.’ And he heard the Father’s reply, ‘Sit at My right hand until I make Your enemies Your footstool’ (Psalm 110:1).” To Him be glory, now and forever, through end-less ages. Amen. [Excerpt from Easter Homily 5-6] Hesychius of Jerusalem was a priest and a Scripture scholar who worked with Sts. Jerome and Cyril of Jerusalem. He wrote a com-mentary on the whole Bible. He died around 450 A.D.

SILENCE Even before the celebration itself, it is a praiseworthy practice for silence to be observed in the church, in the sacristy, in the vesting room, and in adjacent areas, so that all may dispose themselves to carry out the sacred celebration in a devout and fitting manner.
