Christ is Risen! Indeed He is Risen! Alleluia! Resurrexit sicut dixit, Alleluia!
In these days of the Easter Octave, which the Church celebrates as a prolongation of the great day of Resurrection itself, we to celebrate Our Lord’s Resurrection with rejoicing. “I came that you might have Life, and have it to the full,” Jesus said. In His Passion, Death, and Resurrection, He gains for us a share in His Divine Life which He pours out on us in the living water of the Holy Spirit, given at Pentecost. He continues to pour out the grace of His Risen Life to us today especially in the sacraments of the Church and in the Holy Eucharist in which we celebrate His Paschal Mystery and receive Our Lord Himself in Holy Communion.
As we wish you Happy Easter, we pray that Our Lord will pour out on you the abundance of His grace and draw you closer to Himself during this holy and joyful season.
In Our Lady, joyful Queen of Heaven,
Mother Mary of the Precious Blood, O.P. and Sisters
