Abbreviated tour of Pilgrim Virgin Statue
The World Apostolate of Fatima brought the Pilgrim Virgin Statue of Fatima to the Diocese of Evansville for a tour of parishes and schools from March 13 through March 20. The tour was cut short as a result of the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) outbreak. The top photo shows a March 14 public procession in Vincennes during the statue’s visit to St. Francis Xavier Parish. This March 13 photo shows the statue at St. John the Evangelist Parish in Daylight. The remainder of the tour was cancelled.

Fra Angelico’s ‘The Entombment of Christ’
Fra Angelico's "The Entombment of Christ" places us at the tomb as those who loved Christ and were loved by him prepare his body for burial. Christ's pallid body, cradled in burial cloths, is suspended off the ground between two men tenderly carrying his body toward the tomb.

Easter’s light overcomes darkness
Editor’s note: Although the suspension of public Masses continues across the Diocese of Evansville and much of America through Holy Week, Easter is not cancelled. Catholic News Service provides the story, Easter's light overcomes darkness, to assist us in commemorating the Paschal Triduum – Jesus’ passion, death and resurrection. Please note that the opening procession the story describes will not occur this year due to the suspension of public Masses.
