Easter Vigil & Easter Day (2026)

"Sisters and brothers, even today there are tombs to be opened, and often the stones sealing them are so heavy and so closely guarded that they seem to be immovable.  Some weigh heavily on the human heart, such as mistrust, fear, selfishness and resentment; others, stemming from these inner struggles, sever the bonds between us through war, injustice and the isolation of peoples and nations.  Let us not allow ourselves to be paralyzed by them!" --- This is an English translation of the homilies given by Pope Leo XIV during the Easter Vigil and on Easter Day (4 & 5 April 2026) The official homily transcripts from the Vatican can be found here [https://www.vatican.va/content/leo-xiv/en/homilies/2026/documents/20260404-veglia-pasquale.html] and here [https://www.vatican.va/content/leo-xiv/en/homilies/2026/documents/20260405-pasqua.html].
