Theme for The Third Sunday of Easter
Because Christ is risen from the dead Christians are to make a break with former sins and live in the life of Christ. This points to a life of repentance and forgiveness, which is the practice of Holy Baptism.
Hymn #483
Alleluia. We know that Christ being raised from the dead will never die again; death no longer has dominion over him. Alleluia. Did not our hearts burn within us while he talked to us on the road, while he opened to us the Scriptures? Alleluia.
O God, through the humiliation of Your Son You raised up the fallen world. Grant to Your faithful people, rescued from the peril of everlasting death, perpetual gladness and eternal joys; through Jesus Christ, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.
