Easter Vigil by ourselves (and Deacon Aunt Margie and cousins Charlotte and Josiah)

It is a heavy responsibility to be the primary gatekeeper for your children’s imaginations until they grow up to be old enough to take on the responsibility themselves. Their imaginations are priceless treasures that you are given the opportunity to shape and guide so that they have a rich inner life.
