Easter is the most significant celebration in the Church year, marking the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. The Easter Sunday Readings for the Vigil Mass include passages about creation, the sacrifice of Abraham, the crossing of the Red Sea, and prophecies of restoration. The Mass during the day includes readings about the proclamation of the resurrection, setting minds on heavenly things, and the empty tomb discovered by Mary Magdalene. The themes of Easter focus on the Resurrection of Jesus, the triumph over death, the assurance of God’s presence, and the call to embrace new life and let go of sin.
