Alleluia! He is Risen!
Today we celebrate Easter Sunday of the Resurrection of the Lord, the foundation of our faith and the greatest feast in the Church. The Resurrection of Christ is the victory that brings us the promise of new life.

"This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad!" (Psalm 118:24)

Today, we:
Renew our Baptismal Promises: Declaring our faith and our "Yes" to God.
Celebrate the Empty Tomb: Witnessing the triumph of light over darkness and life over death.
Enter the Octave of Easter: Beginning eight days of celebration that are treated as one continuous "Great Sunday."

May the joy of the Risen Christ fill your hearts and homes today and throughout the Easter season!

Tonight, the Church gathers for the Easter Vigil in the Holy Night, which the @USCCB describes as the "mother of all holy vigils." We move from the darkness of the tomb into the radiant light of the Resurrection.

The liturgy unfolds in four powerful parts:
The Service of Light: The blessing of the new fire and the lighting of the Paschal Candle—Christ, our Light!
The Liturgy of the Word: A journey through salvation history, from Creation to the Resurrection.
Christian Initiation: Welcoming new members into the Church through Baptism and Confirmation.
The Liturgy of the Eucharist: Our first joyful celebration of the Risen Lord at the altar.

The "Alleluia" returns! After the silence of Lent, we proclaim with one voice: Christ is Risen, Truly He is Risen!

Today, we observe Good Friday of the Lord’s Passion, a day of solemn prayer, fasting, and abstinence as we contemplate the depth of God's love.

We focus on three powerful moments:
The Liturgy of the Word: Proclaiming the Passion according to the Gospel of John.
The Adoration of the Holy Cross: Drawing near to the wood of the Cross on which hung the Savior of the world.
Holy Communion: Receiving the Eucharist consecrated from the night before, as no Mass is celebrated today.

We stand at the foot of the Cross, not in despair, but in awe of the sacrifice that won our salvation.
"By his wounds we were healed." (Isaiah 53:5)

Tonight, at the Mass of the Lord's Supper, we enter the Sacred Paschal Triduum—the holiest three days of the Church year.

During this time, we commemorate: The institution of the Holy Eucharist The institution of the Priesthood The Mandatum—the "new commandment" to love one another through humble service, as shown in the washing of the feet.

As the liturgy ends and the altar is stripped, we are invited to "watch and pray" with Christ in silent adoration at the Altar of Repose, remembering His agony in the Garden of Gethsemane.

“I give you a new commandment: love one another. As I have loved you, so you also should love one another.” (John 13:34)

Order in the court! 👩‍⚖️👨‍⚖️

Our 6th graders welcomed lawyer Andrew McClarity to English class!

He helped us bridge the gap between our classroom "Linguistic Crime Scenarios" and real-world legal work. The students loved learning how a single comma or the perfect word choice can change the course of a trial.

Thank you, Mr. McClarity, for showing us that ELA skills are a superpower in the legal field!

This Sunday, our school community joins the universal Church in celebrating Palm Sunday of the Passion of the Lord. This marks the beginning of Holy Week, the most sacred time of our liturgical year.

We commemorate two distinct moments:
The Procession: We carry our palms and sing "Hosanna," remembering Jesus’ triumphant entry into Jerusalem.
The Proclamation of the Passion: We transition into the solemn reading of the Gospel, preparing our hearts for the sacrifice of the Cross.

As we bring our blessed palms home, let them be a sign that Christ is the King of our hearts and our school!

"Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!" (Matthew 21:9)
