Easter Season Celebrations ~ Celebraciones de Pascua

 

Easter Season

By Maritza Martinez Mejia


The cross

The empty tomb

Real symbols

What is this about?

 

A sacrifice

A miracle

A reminder…

All the immense love

 

A God

A Man

A Spirit

What a mystery!

 HAPPY EASTER!

In our church there is a tradition of blessing Easter baskets.  This has been shared by our Polish parishioners, it comes from the early medieval times called "Święconka."


The Baskets can contain a sampling of Easter foods to be blessed on Holy Saturday for gatherings on Easter Sunday. In some countries, the food in the Polish Easter Basket is similar to the Jewish Passover Menu, but you can add additional items to the basket such as a good Easter Book.

 SUNRISE MASS a meaningful experience at our church St Elizabeth Ann Seton in Florida. 

John 20: 1-18 He is Risen! 

OCTAVE OF EASTER

Easter is not a day but a season of 50 days.   The octave (eight days) of high celebration beginning on Easter Sunday is followed by 42 more days of rejoicing concluding on Pentecost. 


Easter joy is one of the keys not only to our own happiness, but to the new evangelization.  I love the Easter greeting used in the Eastern Churches.

Let's celebrate the Resurrection!

“Christ is Risen.” … 

“He is Risen Indeed!”

Happy Easter!🌷

¡Felices Pascuas!

En nuestra iglesia existe una tradición de bendecir las canasta de Pascua.  Esta ha sido compartida por nuestros feligreses polacos, proviene del altomedieval llamada "Święconka". 

También celebramos la Pascua con la Misa del alba a las 6:00 am recordando el pasaje del evangelio Juan 20:1-18
