Blessings of Hope at Easter Triduum

Most High, Glorious, Good God
to you alone belong praise and glory,
all honour and blessing.
Praise and bless God and give God thanks;
and serve God with great humility.

Peace and All Good
during these Holy Days and the Easter Season.

A Prayer for Easter
Risen Lord
You are life,
You are new life,
You are fullness of life.
Risen Lord
You are hope,
You are renewing hope,
You are our journey of hope.
Risen Lord
You are here,
You are here among us,
You are here raising us up.
Risen Lord
On this pilgrimage of life,
we rejoice in your resurrection
for it reminds us hope is always here
because you dwell among us.
May we be witnesses
of your resurrection in all we do,
in the ways we build community,
in how we gather at table
and recognize you in the breaking of the bread.
May we journey with hope,
May we raise our voices with hope,
May we allow our hearts to be transformed
by the hope which is your new life in us.
Amen. Alleluia!
Br. Michael,
