Season of Easter
The celebration of the Easter Vigil is the beginning of the season of Easter. The Vigil is the Christian feast; of new birth, new beginnings, salvation renewed, and humanity restored to the Lord. While it marks the end of the paschal fast, the end of the celebration of Holy Week, and the end of repentance and conversion for which Lent prepared the community, it is much more a beginning. It is the beginning of a new season of grace and a time of joy and thanksgiving, for Easter is not one day or one solemnity—it is a fifty day celebration, and the fifty days from Easter Sunday to Pentecost Sunday together comprise what the General Instruction terms "the great Sunday".
