From the Desk of Fr. Connolly April 1, 2018 The Glorious Happenings of Holy Saturday and Easter Sunday Holy Saturday: A day as sacred as the day of the Lord’s rest; Holy Saturday has been called the “Second Sabbath” after creation. The day is, and should be, the most calm and quiet day of the entire Church year. Christ rests in the sleep of death within the sealed tomb. His soul descends into “hell” that is, the “limbo of the just,” where the souls of all the holy men who had died before Him had to wait until the Lord’s victory on the Cross reopened heaven to mankind, which had been closed by the sin of Adam. Christ liberates the souls of the just and leads them, at last, to eternal blessedness.

In the evening, the “Mother of all Vigils” takes place, as St. Augustine called it. The Easter Vigil is the greatest and most noble of all Masses. On this holy night, the Church keeps watch, celebrating the resurrection of Christ in the Sacraments and awaiting His return in glory. It is the turning point of the , the Passover of the new covenant, which marks Christ’s passage from death to life. Therefore, the Easter Vigil does not correspond to the usual Satur- day evening Mass and its character is unique in the cycle of the . Especially unique to this Mass is the Service of Light and the of the Catechumens.

Easter Sunday: The Christian heart rejoices in Christ’s Resurrection at Sunday Mass. “…he has risen, as he said…” (Matthew 28:6b), ! Today, Easter, the Incarnate Son of God has finished His redemptive work. He has conquered sin and its ulti- mate consequence of death. The sins of the world, which put Him on the Cross, could not bind Him. He is victorious and the merits of His victory are applied to all His followers, which He can now claim as His own. Mankind has been redeemed. (cf. Matthew 28:1-15; Mark 16:1-14; Luke 24:1-48; John 20:1-23)
