Summary

During the season of Easter we are surrounded by rich symbols that all point us back to Jesus and the Resurrection, whether we realize it or not! This week we will explore some key easter symbols.

+ MONDAY: Easter Eggs

+ TUESDAY: Lilly

+ WEDNESDAY: New Clothes and Easter Bonnets

+ THURSDAY: The Victorious Lamb

+ FRIDAY: The Empty Tomb and the Divine Mercy.

We challenge you to keep celebrating with Jesus all week! After all, we are in the Easter Octave!

In April we are learning the God Alone Suffices Prayer. Here are the words, so you can follow along:

I offer you, Lord, my thoughts: to be fixed on you;

my words: to have you for their theme;

my actions: to reflect my love for you;

my sufferings: to be endured for your greater glory.

I want to do what you ask of me:

in the way you ask,

for as long as you ask,

because you ask it.

I pray, Lord, that you enlighten my mind, inflame my will, purify my heart, and sanctify my soul.

YOU ARE INVITED: We are hosting an Easter Party inside the Clubhouse on Friday, April 5th at 5pm. Join us for prayer, games, celebration and a chance to win real prizes. You can learn more about the Clubhouse, a community for Catholic Kids here: https://catholicsprouts.com/join-the-clubhouse/

0:07.4	Catholic Sprouts,
0:10.5	the daily podcast for Catholic kids that strives to plant seeds of faith.
0:29.6	Hey there, sprouts. Today is Friday, April 5th, 2020. Today is also the feast day of St. Vincent Ferver, who was an important Dominican during a very complicated time in the church,
0:37.3	where there were two popes, and it was very
0:40.1	confusing, but he was a talented preacher and a very holy man who helped the church navigate
0:47.1	that really difficult time. However, St. Vincent Ferber would like me to remind you that what we are celebrating today is even bigger than him, so much bigger than him.
0:59.5	Today we have another solemnity celebrating Easter. We are still in the octave, and we are still celebrating, right?
1:07.9	All week we have been talking about important Easter symbols, Easter eggs, Easter

1:29.3	Before we start that, please join me in our April prayer.
1:33.4	God alone suffices.
1:36.8	In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, amen.
1:42.4	God alone suffices. I offer you, Lord, my thoughts to be fixed on you, my words to have you
1:50.8	for their theme, my actions to reflect your love, my sufferings to be endured for your greater glory.
2:00.2	I want to do what you ask of me in the way you ask it for as long
2:06.6	as you ask it because you ask it. I pray, Lord, that you enlighten my mind, inflame my will,
2:16.4	purify my heart, and sanctify my soul, amen.
2:21.9	So the final two symbols for Easter, first of all, the empty tomb.
2:29.0	Now, obviously, this symbolizes the resurrection.
