The national televised broadcast of the Easter Sunday, which was taped last fall in St. Catharine Church, Spring Lake, will air on ABC affiliates April 1 and will be available on the Diocese’s websites.
Bishop David M. O’Connell, C.M., who serves as principal celebrant and homilist, is joined by several concelebrating priests and more than 300 worshipers who gathered from around the Diocese of Trenton. The program was taped Nov. 30 and produced by the Diocese’s Department of Multimedia Production for the Interfaith Broadcasting Commission and ABC.
In his homily, Bishop O’Connell reflects on the Passion, Death and Resurrection of Christ, and states: “For all who believe, Easter is the heart of our faith, it is the life of our faith, it is the breath of our faith …. Easter is everything.”
Viewers in the Diocese of Trenton will be able to watch the Mass via WABC New York at 5 a.m. and WPVI Philadelphia at 4:30 a.m. The Mass will also be available for viewing on the home pages of
DioceseofTrenton.org and
TrentonMonitor.com any time after 7 a.m. on Easter Sunday morning.
