“God our Father, by raising Christ Your Son You conquered the power of death and opened for us the way to eternal life. Let our celebration today raise us up and renew our lives by the Spirit that is within us. Grant this through our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Son, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.” (Franciscan Friars of the Atonement) Let us keep each other in our thoughts, our hearts and our prayers now and forever. May we all draw closer to Our Lord.
