All are invited to take part in a traditional Easter Food Blessing on Holy Saturday, April 4, at 9:00 a.m., at the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception, 1105 Calhoun Street, Fort Wayne. All are encouraged to bring a basket of foods to be served on Easter for a special blessing.
The blessing of Easter food baskets is a long-standing Catholic tradition, particularly in Poland and other parts of central and Eastern Europe. Through prayer and blessing, we ask God to sanctify the food we will share in celebrating the joy of the Christ’s Resurrection.
