Easter Week
Christ is risen! Alleluia! The center of Christian faith is our belief that Jesus rose from the dead. As St. Paul wrote:
“if Christ has not been raised, then empty is our preaching; empty, too, your faith. Indeed, we should then be exposed as false witnesses of God, for we have born witness before him that he raised up Christ; but he certainly did not raise him up if the dead are not raised. For if the dead are not raised, neither has Christ been raised, and if Christ has not been raised, your faith is in vain; you are still in your sins. Then those who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. If for this life only we have hoped in Christ, we are the most pitiable people of all. But now Christ has been raised from the dead, the first fruits of those who have fallen asleep.” (1 Cor. 15: 14-20) This is why Easter - not Christmas, not Good Friday, not Pentecost - is the greatest feast of the Church year. On Easter, we celebrate Christ's victory over sin and death; at Easter, we have the pledge of eternal life with Christ.
This is why the Church celebrates Easter as an Octave. We celebrate the feast of Easter all week long; every day this week, Sunday to Sunday, literally
is Easter. This is why the days are listed in the Mass Intentions as “Easter Sunday, Easter Monday, Easter Tuesday, etc.” Each day we read one of the Gospel stories of the risen Jesus' appearance to his disciples.
In the same way, each Christian should continue their personal celebration of Christ's resurrection this week. Let us not ask “How
was your Easter?” but rather, “How
are you celebrating Easter?” Christ is risen, as he said! Let us rejoice and be glad, Alleluia |

When Simon Peter arrived after him, he went into the tomb and saw the burial cloths there, and the cloth
|
| that had covered his head, not with the burial cloths but rolled up in a separate place. Then the other disciple also went in, the one who had arrived at the tomb first, and he saw and believed.
-Jn 20:6-8 |
