Epiphany Proclamation

Proclamation of the Date of Easter on Epiphany:

Dear brothers and sisters, the glory of the Lord has shone upon us,and shall ever be manifest among us, until the day of his return.

Through the rhythms of times and seasonslet us celebrate the mysteries of salvation.

Let us recall the year’s culmination, the Easter Triduum of the Lord:his Last Supper, his crucifixion and death, his burial, and his rising, celebrated between the evening of the 20th of March and the evening of the 23rd of March.

Each Easter—as on each Sunday—the Holy Church makes present the great and saving deedby which Christ has forever conquered sin and death. From Easter are reckoned all the days we keep holy.

Ash Wednesday, the beginning of Lent,will occur on the 6th of February.
The Ascension of the Lord will be commemoratedon the 4th of May.
Pentecost, the joyful conclusion of the season of Easter, will be celebrated on May 11th.

And this year the First Sunday of Advent will be on the 30th of November.

Likewise the pilgrim Church proclaims the Passover of Christ in the feasts of the holy Mother of God, in the feasts of the Apostles and Saints, and in the commemoration of the faithful departed.

To Jesus Christ, who was, who is, and who is to come, Lord of time and history, be endless praise, forever and ever. Amen.
