Liturgy and Easter Egg Hunts
This news is a few weeks late but better late than never! Here are a couple photos of our Mass on Easter Sunday morning: special thanks to our servers of Holy Week! And it was a joy to have seminarian David Gayhart with us who will be ordained to the transitional diaconate in a few months!

I hope you are having a joyful Eastertide! We are. The Liturgy of Holy Week and Easter Week were so sacred and uplifting. On Easter Monday we had a mix of the spiritual and the mundane...The Exultet and an Easter Egg Hunt combined!
What do these have in common? Nothing...so you might think...except when a group of two aspiring nuns in a monastery come up with a fun Easter game.
"2012 Eggsultet Hunt"
Sr. Cecilia Maria giving directions
- two teams racing to be the first to put the Exsultet together
- slips of paper with bits of text of the Exsultet are in eggs hidden in and outside the monastery
