Br. Bertrand Hebert, O.P., on the Transition from Lent to Eaater Illumination

"Christ is risen, Alleluia! He has risen indeed, Alleluia!

"These words ring loudly in the hearts of Christians on Easter Sunday, but a surprising silence follows in which we might ask ourselves, 'Where do I go from here?' This silence and disorientation are especially palpable in this time of quarantine and social-distancing. Nonetheless, when trying to answer this question it's admittedly tempting to leave behind our Lenten experiences, move past their culmination in the Paschal mysteries, and say to ourselves, 'Okay, well that was nice. I'll pick it back up next year.'"

In a recent commentary, Brother Bertrand Hebert, O.P., reflected on that to do now that Lent is over and the Easter season has begun.
