Alleluia! This year, for the first time, the Chemin Neuf community in Latvia invited its brothers and sisters, young people, friends and anyone else who wished to join them to celebrate Easter together. It was four days spent pausing together to experience the Easter event, sharing in fraternal communion and serving one another, devoting time to personal prayer and meditating on Jesus\u2019 journey towards the resurrection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile\" style=\"grid-template-columns:29% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/dam.chemin-neuf.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260402_182517-577x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23346 size-full\"\/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Holy Thursday<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We began this special season together with the Holy Mass of the Lord\u2019s Supper, which for many was a significant moment in entering this liturgical season. Liene, reflecting on this experience, says: <em>\u201cThis year, I had the opportunity to experience Easter with the Chemin Neuf community in Liep\u0101ja. It was the first time we had celebrated together, and from Thursday evening onwards, the experience was profound and spiritually enriching. In the chapel, a table had been set, symbolising the Last Supper of the disciples. This helped me to enter more deeply into the liturgy and to become aware of the beginning of the Paschal Mystery.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text has-media-on-the-right is-stacked-on-mobile\" style=\"grid-template-columns:auto 33%\"><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Good Friday<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Friday began with an introduction to the day, a time for personal prayer and silence, and the celebration of the veneration of the Cross. Liene adds:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"line-height:1.7\"><em>\u201cEvery morning, we were given a teaching and points for prayer, which helped us to pause, reflect and enter more deeply into these days.

It was precisely the Way of the Cross that enabled many to experience a profound union with Christ. El\u012bna emphasises the importance of this day: <em>\u201cEaster was a truly beautiful and enriching time \u2014 particularly the opportunity to experience Jesus\u2019 suffering more deeply, both during the Way of the Cross and whilst watching the film.\u201d \u201d <\/em>Gunta also recalls the Way of the Cross: <em>\u201cWe could almost physically feel the Way of the Cross with Him, experiencing the cold, despair and loneliness, but also an indescribable joy in being true witnesses and participants in the victory of His love!\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"23379\" src=\"https:\/\/dam.chemin-neuf.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260403_134909-577x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23379\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"23390\" src=\"https:\/\/dam.chemin-neuf.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260403_135350-577x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23390\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"23368\" src=\"https:\/\/dam.chemin-neuf.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260403_171300-577x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23368\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"line-height:1.7\"><strong>The Easter Vigil<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Holy Saturday began with a communal prayer, a teaching session and a time for personal prayer, followed by the joint preparation of the Easter Vigil Mass and the celebration. Everyone had a specific task or role, serving one another. It was a truly beautiful and fraternal time. <em>\u201cEaster in Liep\u0101ja exceeded my expectations. The special beauty of this Easter lay in the fact that we acted and felt like the different members of a single body, each with their own role, but each important and making their own contribution!\u201d<\/em>, writes Gunta.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The richness of this celebration also lay in the diversity of generations, nationalities and Christian denominations present, which made this time particularly rich and profound. Valts also emphasises its importance:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u201cThe international and ecumenical atmosphere moved us, where such different people were united by a single faith. The Easter Vigil and the Easter Mass, with their beautiful and rich liturgy, were a very special and moving experience.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"line-height:1.7\">Sarm\u012bte, from the Lutheran Church, recalls: <em>\u201cWe experienced a wonderful sense of fellowship and, for the first time, I took part in an Easter Vigil. I have been a Lutheran for 20 years, and this was a first for me. It was the best Easter ever. We experienced that when we give glory to God, He lifts us up, rejoices with us and surprises us \u2014 He has prepared so many good things for us that we cannot even imagine.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile\" style=\"grid-template-columns:31% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/dam.chemin-neuf.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/20260404_204610-577x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23489 size-full\"\/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the Easter Vigil Mass, we were able to experience the beauty of the liturgy, in which certain passages from the Scriptures were dramatised. The readings and hymns were in English, Russian, German, French, Lithuanian and Nepali. Anna said: <em>\u201cI loved how involved the children were and how attentive they were! It was great that the hymns and readings were in different languages! \u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The children present allowed us to experience the crossing of the Red Sea in a special way by acting it out: <em>\u201cWhat particularly struck me was the Easter Vigil, where the Scriptures were acted out in short scenes. This allowed us to experience the Word of God even more deeply.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"line-height:1.7\">Another unforgettable moment of the night was the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chemin-neuf.org.uk\/temoignage-dun-nouveau-baptise\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.chemin-neuf.org.uk\/temoignage-dun-nouveau-baptise\/\">baptisms<\/a>, when two new children of God joined us: <em>\u201cDuring the Easter Vigil, it was a joy to witness the baptisms and to hear the testimonies of those on their journey towards God. \u201d<\/em> Pankaj, who was baptised that night and received his first communion, shares with us: <em>\u201cI felt as though I had been reunited with someone I knew, who knew me, and who was dear to me. I felt complete. During Holy Communion, I used to cross my arms over my chest; now they were open. Open to the light, to grace, ready to receive Holy Communion.
