Easter Vigil: The Mother of All Vigils
The ancient Church celebrated Holy Saturday with strict
fasting in preparation of the celebration of Easter. After
sundown the Christians would hold an all-night vigil,
which concluded with baptism and Eucharist at the break
of dawn. The same idea (if not the identical timeline) is
found in the Easter Vigil today, which is the high point of
the Easter Triduum and is filled with an abundance of
readings, symbols, ceremony, and sacraments. Celebrations of the resurrection continue with the Masses of Easter Sunday.
The Easter Vigil, the Church states, ranks as “the mother
of all vigils” (General Norms, 21). Being a vigil — a time of
anticipation and preparation — it takes place at night,
starting after nightfall. It consists of four general parts:
the Service of Light, the Liturgy of the Word, Christian
Initiation, and Liturgy of the Eucharist.
The Service of Light begins when a fire is lit and
blessed, and then the Paschal candle, which symbolizes
the light of Christ, is lit from the fire by the priest, who
proclaims: “May the light of Christ, rising in glory, dispel
the darkness of our hearts and minds.” The biblical
themes of light removing darkness and life overcoming
death suffuse the entire Vigil.
Then the Exsultet is sung. This is an ancient and beautiful
poetic hymn of praise to God for the light of Christ symbolized in the Paschal candle. It may be as old as Saint Ambrose
(d. 397) and has been part of the Roman tradition since the
ninth century. In the darkness of the church, lit only by candles, the faithful listen to this song of light and glory.
The Liturgy of the Word follows, during which the
faithful hear God’s unending love story through scripture
Children’s Liturgy of the Word Updates
Each week, volunteers work hard to provide the
children of our parish with an age appropriate lesson
on the readings from Mass. When the children come
to Children’s Liturgy, it is not playtime but a time for
them to hear the readings in words they can understand and receive a brief reflection on what it means
for them. Please remind your children that just as
they are expected to sit quietly and listen during Mass,
the same is expected during Children’s Liturgy. Children who are not ready to participate in a respectful
manner will be brought upstairs to sit with their parents.
We are still looking for volunteers!
If you are interested in finding out more about how
to help, please contact Michelle Sesny at msesny@
saintbridgetchurch.org. Without new volunteers we
may not be able to continue offering Children’s Liturgy on a weekly basis.
and psalm. These readings constitute an overview of salvation history and God’s various interventions into time and
space, beginning with Creation and concluding with the
angel telling Mary Magdalene and others that Jesus is no
longer dead; "You seek Jesus of Nazareth, the crucified. He
has been raised; he is not here." Through these readings
“the Lord ‘beginning with Moses and all the prophets’ (Lk
24.27, 44-45) meets us once again on our journey and,
opening up our minds and hearts, prepares us to share in
the breaking of the bread and the drinking of the
cup” (General Norms, 11).
From the early days of the ancient Church the Easter Vigil
has been the time for adult converts to be baptized and enter the Church. After the conclusion of the Liturgy of the
Word, the Sacraments of Initiation are celebrated.
This is a joyous celebration of baptism for those over the
age of seven, and for Confirmation for all those baptized,
who may be joined by those who are received into the full
communion of the Roman Catholic Church. If candidates
for full communion are being welcomed at the Vigil they
make a profession of faith and are also confirmed.
The sacraments of initiation include Eucharist. The Easter
Vigil culminates with the Liturgy of the Eucharist, during which those just baptized and confirmed will celebrate
their first reception of the sacrament of all sacraments, the
holy Eucharist. This is the time they have prepared for and
longed for, and it is the time the faithful are once again
united with the Lord around his table: one Body in Christ.
The Triduum has reached its apex, but the celebration
continues after sunrise…for He is Risen!

Haiti Collection Last Weekend. Thank you for your generosity to our Haiti Ministry in last week’s collection.
Haiti Ministry Meeting. The joint Haiti Ministry of St. Bridget and Sacred
Heart usually meets the fourth Monday of each month, but since it is Easter Monday
we will have no meeting this month.
A Good Lenten Practice is taking time to pray - Centering or Contemplative
Prayer, is an apophatic prayer form in which words are not used but rather we listen,
except our listening is done with our heart rather than our ears. In this prayer God is
allowed to well up inside us through the silence we create. This ancient prayer can be
refreshing in our over scheduled lives. Join Sr. Kathy Persson and Paul Amrhein as
your guides each Wednesday at 4 – 4:30 in the Murphy Conference Room. Please
register with Paul Amrhein at 525-7902 or paul@saintbridgetchurch.org, thank you.
Dear Saint Bridget Family,
A giant Saint Bridget “thank you” to all of you who organized and participated in our
inaugural Family Day of Service! We had over 350 parents, students, alumni, parishioners, teachers, priests, former teachers, and community members join forces to serve
as the hands and feet of Jesus across Richmond today.
By God’s grace, our school community was able to serve Housing Families First,
Coal Pit Learning Center, Saint Francis Home, Little Sisters of the Poor, Saint Bridget School, Saint Bridget Church, Children's Hospital, and Commonwealth Catholic
Charities!
While only God knows all the stories of love and service this morning, we tried to capture some of them in this video found at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?
v=wGIyzj0U1S8&feature=youtu.be
May today be just one day in a lifetime of service!
