Easter Blessing of Baskets

Featured

Holy Saturday April 4th @ 11:00 AM Location Foyer All parishioners are welcome to join us for this tradition, full of beautiful catholic symbolism.  What to put in the basket?  Eggs — symbol of Jesus’ tomb, representing His Resurrection. Meat — symbol of Jesus as The Lamb of God. Bread — reminds us that Jesus is The Bread of Life.  Salt — reminds us that we are The Salt of the Earth.  Oil and vinegar — symbol of the Passion of Christ and the bitter of Passover.  Wine — symbol of the Blood of the Lord.  A white candle — symbol of the Light of the World.  Lastly, the basket is covered with white linen, symbolizing the shroud in which Christ’s body was wrapped.
