Last week was Divine Mercy Sunday. The 8 days from Easter Sunday to Divine Mercy Sunday is known as the Octave of Easter and is considered an especially joyful time. However, Easter continues! As the most important feast in the Christian calendar, the Easter Season continues for 50 days, through the Ascension of Our Lord to Pentecost Sunday. So keep celebrating the Resurrection of Our Lord! STAY WITH US, LORD Walk with us, Lord, along the road of resurrection! Explain for us, so slow to believe, the things that Scripture says of you. Break the bread of the Eucharist with us whenever we share our lives with our brothers and sisters. Stay with us each time night approaches and the daylight fades in our hearts! —From Come, Lord Jesus by Lucien Deiss, CSSp, copyright © 1976, 1981, Lucien Deiss.
