Risen Lord, in who we are already raised up to live now no longer for ourselves but for God (Gal 2:20). Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world! Spare us, O Lord! Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world! Gracious-ly hear us, O Lord! Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the word! Have mer-cy on us! V. Lord, by your cross and resurrection you have set us free. R. You are the Savior of the world! Let us pray: Heavenly Father, in raising up your Son Jesus Christ from the grave, you have raised up the hopes of this fallen world. In spite of the many problems in our world to-day, in spite of our own serious problems, your power will finally triumph. We rejoice in the grace of Christ’s Resurrec-tion, and thank you for this wonderful gift. May it transform our lives, and bring us to eternal life. Amen

Easter Sunday The first light of Easter dawn had begun to creep over the horizon. The steadfast women from Friday's gory events are returning again to the body of their Lord. "Who will roll back the stone for us from the entrance to the tomb?" How quickly we return to mundane concerns and how thoroughly God wants to surprise us! Imagine the utter shock upon seeing the stone rolled away, the tomb empty, and a stranger clothed in light proclaiming the impossible. "You seek Jesus of Naza-reth, the crucified. He has been raised; he is not here." He is risen indeed and the world will never be the same. We know from other Gospel passages that Mary Magdalene made haste to the disciples to proclaim the Good News. We know that Peter and John rushed to the tomb to see for them-selves. We know that the wonder and awe of the Resurrec-tion permeated the lives of the apostles until their own dying day. Can we comprehend the utterly world-changing nature of this surprise? The historical reanimation of a dead man is of no real value to us. But we know that Easter Sunday is so much more. By the Resurrection of Jesus, life has triumphed over death for us all. The gates of heaven are opened and the treasury of graces is poured out upon the here and now. This Resurrection Day, let us draw near, amazed yet unafraid, to the risen Christ. Let us recall the words of Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI, "Jesus is not a character from the past. He lives, and he walks before us as one who is alive, he calls us to follow him, the living one, and in this way to discover for
ourselves the path of life" (Easter Vigil, April 15, 2006).
Religious Formation at Holy Trinity Catholic School
The Assessment of Children/Youth Religious Education
(ACRE) is taken by all 5th and 8th grade students in the
Diocese of Joliet Catholic schools each February. Holy
Trinity Catholic School recently received the results of this
assessment for our students. We are pleased to
announce that our 5th grade students scored a 73.5% on
the Faith Knowledge portion of the test, above the national
averages of 69.4% for all students and 71.6% for all
Catholic school students who took the assessment. Our
8th grade students scored a 77.9%, compared to 72.8%
for all students and 75.6% for Catholic school students
nationally. At our January open house, a parent of 2
recent HTCS graduates now studying at Benet Academy
pointed out that religious formation should be considered
among the things that set us apart at Holy Trinity. He went
on to share that the theology teachers of both of his
students have remarked that they are exceptionally well-
formed and know their Faith well. The faculty considers
that these objective results, in combination with feedback
from the high schools like this, indicate we are on our
chosen path to help parents to form modern-day disciples.
Holy Trinity Mathletes Calculate a Victory! A team of four students from Holy Trinity participated in
the Annual Nazareth Academy 7th Grade Math Contest on Monday, March 12th. The team included Inga Astrauskas, Thomas Cyze, Ken Sledzinski and Ben Steger and earned 2nd place overall in the collaborative competition in the A Division. Ben Steger also earned a bronze medal in the
individual competition. Holy Trinity would like to congratulate the students and teacher, Mrs. Theresa
Steger, for a job well done!
Adorer’s Corner
HE HAS RISEN!
Today we celebrate the miracle of Jesus’ resurrection,
but EVERYDAY a miracle occurs at Mass, when the host is consecrated by the priest and Jesus becomes truly present; body, blood, soul and divinity in the
Eucharistic host. Be grateful. Ask for His forgiveness. Beg for His help in your troubles. Open your heart to His graces. He won’t let you down. Set aside one hour a week and
keep Jesus company.
Become a registered adorer!

WHY DO WE DO THAT? - CATHOLIC LIFE EXPLAINED
Question: What is the most important holiday on the Catholic calendar?
Answer: In our daily life, we often refer to "holidays." The word "holiday" actually comes from the word "holy day." More than a simple celebration or family gathering, these days connect us to God in a unique way. We remember - and share in - the events in God's plan of salvation. Some feasts may be celebrated with more traditions and secular atten-tion, like Christmas, but the most important holy day
is Easter.
When Jesus died and rose again, he destroyed the ultimate weapon of sin and made it possible for us to have eternal life with him in Heaven. Without the res-urrection, St. Paul tells us, our faith is in vain. This past Holy Week, we walked through the Paschal Mystery, the suffering, death, and resurrection of
Christ. Easter is commemorated each time we cele-brate the Mass. As St. John Paul II said, "we are an Easter people and alleluia is our song!" Jesus was
born for Easter. Our joyful celebration of the resurrec-tion is at the core of what it means to be a Christian!

Resurrection Prayer
O Risen Lord, the Way, the Truth, and the Life! Make us faithful followers of the spirit of Your Resurrec-tion. Grant that we may be inwardly renewed; dying to ourselves in order that You may live in us. May our lives serve as signs of the transforming power of Your love. Use us as Your in-struments for the renewal of society, bringing Your life and love to all, and leading them to Your Church. This we ask of You, Lord Jesus, living and reigning with the Father, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God forever. Amen

Easter Prayer of Thanksgiv-ing
Good and gracious heavenly Father, we come before you on this Easter Sunday with full and grate-ful hearts for the gift of the Paschal Mystery that you showed us in the life, death, and resurrection of your Son, our brother by adoption, Je-sus Christ. Bless us and all those who profess belief in your saving love. Bless also those who have
yet to profess belief in you. You are God for all. We ask all this in
Christ's name. Amen.
