Easter 50: Embrace Your Mission
Share in the New Life of the Resurrection and Build New Habits of Uncommon Freedom
In order to express the new life won for us by Jesus and our own mission to share it, we will both celebrate and continue to grow. First, as a fraternity, we will celebrate throughout the Easter season, making acts of uncommon leisure through festivity and recreation, gathering to express Easter joy. Second, we will focus on building a new habit to express the life given to us by the Resurrection. As we renew the gift and promise of our baptism, we will seek to live it out even more fully. At the end of the Easter season, we will be able to say that we made the most of this glorious season by embracing its celebratory character and drawing upon its power to live differently.
What to Expect
Together, we will feast and fast with the universal Church

Embrace Your Mission
Through his Resurrection, Jesus has freed us from sin and death, calling us to live in a way that reflects this victory. Our lives should be different—marked by hope, joy, and the freedom that comes from knowing we have passed from death into life. This means building new habits that express the fruits of his triumph, allowing our faith to shape the way we live each day.
Live in Freedom
Read the Book of Deuteronomy, where Moses instructs the Israelites on how to live in the Promised Land. Jesus perfects this teaching by giving us the Holy Spirit, who moves us to obey God’s commandments from within, out of love. Through daily prayer and reflection, we will discern how God is calling each of us to live out our personal mission in the world.
Celebrate and Grow
As we embrace our mission, we will both celebrate and commit to spiritual growth. We will express Easter joy through festivity and recreation as a fraternity, recognizing the season’s significance. At the same time, we will focus on building a specific new habit that reflects the transformed life given to us by the Resurrection. By the end of the season, we will have made the most of this time, deepening our faith and sharing in the joy of salvation.
