Notes from Dr. Mullenschlader
Holy Week: As we celebrate the three holiest days of the year, I want to wish you a very blessed Triduum and a Happy Easter! We have almost completed our Lenten journey. Here at school, we have been praying the Angelus each day. The Angelus is a beautiful traditional prayer of the church that is prayed three times a day. We prayed it at 8:00 am, 12:00 pm, and 2:55 pm each day. The prayer is a beautiful representation of meeting Jesus through Mary. There is a prayer at the end of the Angelus that I want to share with you:
Let us pray. Pour forth, we beseech you, O Lord, your grace into our hearts: that we, to whom the Incarnation of Christ your Son was made known by the message of an Angel, may by his Passion and Cross be brought to the glory of his Resurrection. Through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.
Happy Easter!
