We had the morning Mass in our own chapel and I gladly gave the Easter vigil (held in the Parish) a miss. Fr Maliekal personally oversaw the decoration and preparation of the various things needed for the liturgy of the day, including creating a 'garden' around the Easter candle and the holy water. He had his reasons for doing so. Alphonse did give a nice touch to the empty tomb with the left overs of the refectory stones (see below). Well, another liturgical season ends and a new one begins... this too shall pass away. And as I believe, the thrill and depth of the new one depends not so much on the new one itself but how well the previous one has been lived as a build up or stepping stone for this one!
Anyway, happy Easter to all.
