Paschal Vigil on Papa Stronsay

Resurrexit sicut dixit!

 The Blessing of the Fire and Procession with the Paschal Candle

All the candles in the chapel are lit using the paschal fire

Exsúltet iam Angélica turba coelórum

exsúltent divína mystéria

et pro tanti Regis victória tuba ínsonet salutáris!

+

Let the angelic choirs of Heaven now rejoice

let the divine Mysteries rejoice

and let the trumpet of salvation sound forth the victory of so great a King!

During the Gloria the bells are triumphantly rung once again and the chapel is flooded with light as the Church joyfully proclaims the Glory of the Risen Lord.

Regina caeli, laetare, alleluia. 

Quia quem meruisti portare, alleluia. 

Resurrexit, sicut dixit, alleluia. 

Ora pro nobis Deum, alleluia!

The Sons of the Most Holy Redeemer wish you a blessed Easter

+ Deo Gratias et Mariae +
