Deacon Jean-Bernard Robert Traeger-chaired our first celebration in 2009. The theme chosen for the approach of Easter was "Jesus, our King, our Light" , a course on Palm and Resurrection of Jesus today.
The celebration began with a procession of the icon Christ Pantocrator carried by two youth categories 5 and 6 and groups of category 1 on a path of palms and fabrics to illustrate the entry of Jesus into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday.
Then it was listening to the Word of God as a mimed reading for Holy Thursday by the children of category 2 with the last meal Jesus and his arrest on Friday by the children of category 3 and 4, with the passion of Jesus and his burial in the garden of Easter and the Day of Resurrection by youth category 5 and 6, with the discovery of the empty tomb by a group of women.
After reading the Gospel of St. John (John 20, 11-18), Jean-Bernard told us about Jesus alive, risen and alive forever, conqueror of death. The cross, an instrument of death, become an instrument of life, was then planted flowers in the garden of Easter.
All children resumed in mimicking the following prayer: "Jesus , we can see you with our eyes, nor hear with our ears, nor touch you with our hands, but we believe that you're alive .
Cate's children then formed a round with yellow suns fabric to sing Jesus alive, giving us its light like a blazing sun.
Jesus is alive among us, even if we see it.
Jesus is alive. It is like a sun for us: it gives us life, heat, light, it brings us together. He is the beacon that guides us. Its rays come to us, and we turn into light bearer.
After a beautiful and great sign of the cross and praying the Our Father, do u Easter egg distribution was held out of the cathedral to conclude the celebration.
