Easter Sunday

Happy Easter!!! The Lord is Risen Alleluia!!!

As the universal Church concluded its time with the lenten disciplines, we now enter into the glorious and joyful Easter season!  We need fasting, however, to prepare us for feasting. We let go of our attachments during penitential seasons so that we can enter festivity with a free heart and without excess. 

Festivity makes the right use of earthly things as a joyful act of praise but it does not overindulge in them, falling back into domination by material things. There can be no genuine feasting without fasting first, as the two go hand in hand. We can discover festivity this Easter in a different way: we can choose to feast, or we can choose to binge. Yes, there is a difference. As Easter arrives, its time to feast differently!  (Source: Exodus 90)
