THE EASTER OCTAVE

Easter me lasts fi y days: seven weeks of seven days (seven equals Biblical perfec on) plus one day: perfec on plus! Like an eight-day Jewish wedding, or a child who can’t bear to let go of Christmas, birthdays, and school vaca on, the Church celebrates the Easter Octave: “the marriage of heaven and earth,” as the Vigil calls Jesus’ resurrec on; our new members’ bap smal rebirth; our renewal of bap smal vows; our hearts’ “divine vaca-

on” (La n vacare, “to be empty”), newfound me and space for love of God and neighbor. Make home an Easter garden! Adorn the dining table with a pillar candle (your “paschal candle”), a bowl full of water (ideally, from the parish’s bap smal font), a vase of flowers or bowl of sprou ng grain with Easter eggs. Even non-singers can handle the three-fold Gospel Alleluia! Let that be your grace before meals, perhaps with a prayer recalling Em-maus (Luke 24:13-35): “Be known to us, Risen Lord Jesus, as you were to the first disciples, in your word, in the breaking of bread, and in everyone we meet.” —Peter Scagnelli, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
