22 Chair of St. Peter

Earth and heaven, fire and water, light and darkness, death and life: the art for the 2016 calendar by Br. Martin Erspamer, osb, reflects the powerful imagery of the Exsultet, which is both prayer and poem, sacred song and liturgical proclamation. The Exsultet is heralded as the liturgy’s finest poetry and acclaimed as the mother of all chants. Sung during the Service of Light or Lucernarium at the Easter Vigil, the Exsultet helps us to fix our eyes on Christ, the light who overcame the darkness of the underworld and the darkness in human hearts. It recalls the greatest events in sacred history, blending the things of heaven with those of earth, and summoning us to realize and celebrate the sources of the joy that imbues the Easter celebration. It begins the Easter Vigil and sets the tone for the solemn liturgy that follows.

The Year of Grace 2016

Annual Resources Available July

The center panel depicts the first lines of the Exsultet: “Exult, let them exult, the hosts of heaven. . . . Let Mother Church also rejoice.” The imagery draws on ancient icons of Christ in majesty: the Risen Christ, clad in white garments and seated upon a heavenly throne, shows us the wounds in his hands, side, and feet.

The upper left depicts Moses leading the Israelites through the Red Sea. We see the swirling waves of water, while in the center Moses leads the people from slavery to freedom (see Exodus 14:15 – 31). Jesus’ Passion and Death take place in the context of this Jewish holy day. For Christians, this ancient story of the passage from slavery to freedom takes on new meanings: it is a symbol for Baptism. Thus in the Exsultet, the Church sings: “This is the night, / when once you led our forebears, Israel’s children, / from slavery in Egypt.”

In the top right is the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. The serpent is wound around the tree, urging them to eat, but ultimately, it is the free choice of Adam and Eve that leads to their expulsion from the garden. We can see the angel holding a flaming sword, sending them out of paradise; on the right, we see the land to which they are banished. And yet, there is a sense of hope in this picture.

In the bottom left Moses gives the Israelites instructions so that they and their families, the first-born sons, may be spared. They must take a lamb, slaughter it in the evening, and then mark their houses with it. The homes of the Israelites are marked with the blood of the Lamb. The people carry bowls filled with blood, and one holds a bundle of hyssop used to mark the doorposts.

In the bottom right, the Exsultet sings Christ as the radiant Morning Star.

The Christ who emptied himself for our sakes does not now hoard the spoils of his victory over death. Rather, he shares the eternal life he has won with all his people. Two angels point toward the morning star. The sky is dark, but the surrounding darkness only makes the star stand out more vividly. The men and women standing below keep their eyes fixed on the Star, outstretching their hands.

Second Edition

Study Edition

Many churches have the custom of giving a place of honor to a book in which parishioners write the names of their dead. This beautifully bound volume features a gold embossed cover, which matches other ritual editions, for a place of reverence in the parish.

This comprehensive introduction to the entire RCIA includes commentary and ample space for notes for everyone involved with the RCIA to study, reflect, and prepare for the liturgy. The complete text of the rite is included, along with additional rites approved for U.S. dioceses.
