HOLY SEPULCHER AND SAINT KILIAN PARISHES PAGE 5 Blessing of the Easter Food Saturday, April 3 at Holy Sepulcher and Saint Kilian at 12:00pm. We have the popular tradition for the preparation of festivities of Easter. The blessing of special foods for Easter is still a tradition, especially among those of Eastern European ancestry. Baskets of food are brought to the church and blessed by the priest or deacon.
Easter Vigil This is the high point of the liturgical year. The Vigil has regained its rightful place as the most important ritual of the year. An annual celebration of the Lord’s resurrection goes back to the first generation of Christianity. During the first three centuries, this was the ONLY feast observed throughout the church and was done by way of a vigil, a watch. It was natural that Christians chose the night hours to celebrate their religious experience of a Christ victorious over death and sin, as well as their victory along with His. Holy Saturday services include lighting of the Easter fire, which still begins the vigil today, but was not part of the ritual in ancient times. The lighting of a new Easter fire also has a practical purpose. The lamps in the church in the early centuries used to be extinguished Holy Thursday night. Consequently, a new fire had to be lit for the celebration and readers to see by. It is during the Vigil that those preparing for initiation are received into the Church. The Vigil Schedule on Saturday, April 3: 8:00pm—Saint Kilian Church 8:30pm—Holy Sepulcher Church
Easter Sunday Easter is the greatest celebration in the Catholic church because it is the completion of the Holy week that ends with the resurrection of Jesus. Easter celebrates the beginning and foundation of Christianity. Jesus was raised from the dead, and it goes to show that He conquered sin and death. He is the only Son of God, who through this amazing resurrection, brings us closer to God and our faith.
