This week your child was drawn more deeply into the Easter story.
The paschal mystery (the life, death and resurrection of
Jesus) is a fundamental belief of our Christian faith,
and all our liturgical feasts are related to it. It is
at the center of our whole Christian life.
Easter is not only the commemoration of the death and resurrection
of Jesus, but also the manifestation of the new life we
share in and through Him. That is why this is the time
for the Church to welcome new members through the
sacraments of initiation--Baptism, Confirmation, and
Eucharist.
Work together with your child on the Faith Summary. Encourage your
child to learn the statements by heart.
