| 0:00.0 | You're listening to Catholic Sprouts, the daily podcast for Catholic kids that strives to plant seeds of faith. |
| 0:31.5 | Hey there, Sprouse. Today is Monday, April 13th, 2020. It is also the Monday in the octave of Easter. |
| 0:39.7 | So before anything, I'd just like to wish you a very, very happy Easter. Alleluia, he is risen. |
| 0:46.7 | Now, I know that this is a strange Easter with the church's clothes and with almost all of us unable to go to Mass. |
| 0:48.1 | And yet, my friends, I want you to really believe and really know that even at home, it is still Easter. |
| 0:58.8 | And we are still called to celebrate. Now, you might think that Easter was yesterday and that |
| 1:05.7 | the celebration is done, but you would be wrong if you thought that. We celebrate Easter as an octave. Now, if you |
| 1:14.8 | remember from math, an octagon has eight sides, and an octave has eight days, eight days of |
| 1:22.5 | solemnities. So yesterday, Easter Sunday, was the first holy solemnity. I mean, feast of feast, high day of |
| 1:32.3 | celebration. Today is the second day and we will have solemnities for eight days total, ending next Sunday on Divine Mercy Sunday. |
| 1:43.5 | So my challenge for you, which I will remind you again at the end, |
| 1:48.1 | is to keep celebrating. It is still Easter. Pope John Paul II talked about how the octave of |
| 1:55.5 | Easter is like one big, long day, one party that just keeps going. So don't stop partying. Now, this week on Catholic |
| 2:07.9 | sprouts, we are going to be talking about Easter, but we're going to be talking about it in |
| 2:12.3 | terms of mercy. Easter and Mercy might not seem like two terms that go together, but the church tells us |
| 2:20.3 | that indeed they do go together. In fact, the octave of Easter, the eight days of celebration, |
| 2:27.0 | starts with Easter Sunday and ends with Divine Mercy Sunday, which we will celebrate next week. Divine Mercy Sunday, it all started when |
| 2:38.4 | Jesus appeared to St. Faustina. He appeared, as you might know, as an image that we have |
| 2:45.2 | all over the place now. Jesus standing there, reaching out to the world in blessing, but also gesturing toward his heart, where rays of light are shooting forth. |
| 2:57.0 | Red rays and pale blue rays. |
| 3:00.6 | The red rays remind us of the blood that came forth from Jesus as he died on the cross. |
| 3:06.3 | And his blood also reminds us of the gift of the |
