Allelulia! He Is Risen


Alleluia! Christ Is Risen!
 Any other year we would have been together with the parish community to sing our Alleluias. We know that this year we are making the best of difficult times. But our celebration of Easter has just begun! Until we get back with the parish community we need to find ways in our home to celebrate together and educate our families about Easter.  This activity would be for our younger families, but it might be fun to turn it into a game for the entire family as a scavenger hunt. The items for this activity are found around the home and if you can't find a particular item, just improvise. The idea is to use the items to tell the Easter story of Jesus.

Ave Maria by Hauser

When my daughter was engaged to be married, I took voice lessons so that I could sing the Ava Maria at her wedding in Italy. While th at did not happen (long story, lol), one of my very favorite songs of all time is the Ava Maria. May you experience a moment of Heaven listening to it now, featuring  the famous cellist, Hauser.

Praying With The Gospel of Spring May 1 always makes me think of spring even more than the spring equinox.  It is when the birds are singing, the grass is greener, and the plants begin to really flower.  Our prayer today starts with an adult prayer, using gospel readings, meditations, and reflections. Then a children’s prayer and activity follow. Below are 3 texts from the gospel of John that portray the return of spring. 1.  Read and meditate on John 11:1-44 Lazarus, like an opening bud, comes out of the tomb.  He is still bound but is received back into the hands of the artists in the assembly.  Gently they unbind him and set him free.  Leaving death behind, he steps back into life. Spend time reflecting on a moment when you stepped out of the tomb of death and into the womb of life. 2. Read and meditate on John 20:10-18 Mary, weeping at the tomb, is experiencing the terrible darkness of the death of Jesus.  She has not yet seen the hope that stands waiting
