The Easter Season


We are now in the Easter Season. The Easter season is the most important feast in the Christian calendar even more important than Christmas — the Easter season continues on for 50 days, through the Ascension of Our Lord to Pentecost Sunday. (Indeed, for the purpose of fulfilling our Easter Duty, the Easter season extends until Trinity Sunday, the first Sunday after Pentecost!)
