It’s a very special time of year!

It’s the time when all the Sacrament Programs that have been crumpled, drawn on, colored on, stepped on, spit on, ripped, burned, shredded, freeze-dried, thrown away with gum inside, used as papier-mâché, used as a bookmark for the Egyptian Book of the Dead, cut into confetti, folded into a paper airplane, trampled in mud, soaked in a puddle, buried, blended, laminated, disappeared in a magic trick, turned into spitballs, shot into the sun as part of an evil plan to take over the world, used in a “found art” exhibit, used to prop up a wobbly particle detector at the Large Hadron Collider, taped to the bottom of the pew, eaten by a toddler, eaten by the pet dog, eaten by termites, eaten by a horse, eaten by 3 goats, eaten by a teenager looking at memes on their phone, used as an archery target, used to wipe sweat from your brow, dropped on the stage of Riverdance, or otherwise defaced get returned to their original Celestial form.

Even today this season is often referred to by the old acronym referencing to the resurrection of sacrament programs: Eucharist Assembly Schedules Today Expect Resurrection.
