We are still in the Easter season! If you have found yourself struggling to remember that this is a time of rejoicing, now is a perfect time to revisit the beautiful “Exsultet,” the proclamation of Easter.

Abbot Jeremy Driscoll, O.S.B, joins Hilltop Hangouts once again to examine this incredible poem, and encourages us to pray with it throughout the Easter season. He reflects on the exhortation to rejoice at the Lord's Resurrection, how God’s deeds do not grow old, and the audacious claim of “O Happy Fault.”

You can pray with the Exsultet here:
