Bread and eggs may sound like the start of a grocery list or ingredients for breakfast, but both staples of our diet have rich Easter symbolism. Read Why the Egg Is a Symbol of Easter to find out about the symbolism of eggs. Then read “The Bread Rises” from the archives of Catechist magazine to reflect on how we as Easter people are called to be leaven in our world. Cullen Schippe writes: The Risen Christ “is going ahead of us, and now it is our job to bring the yeast of the good news to the lump of dough that is our world so that together the whole loaf can rise.”
