    Easter Sunday – Christ Is Risen – Truly, He Is Risen

    “We are Easter people – anchored in the truth that love is stronger than death.”

    The passage this morning quotes Pope St. John Paul II, Easter Vigil Homily, 1986

    “Christ is risen and with Him comes hope, joy and a future full of life and promise”

    I can’t seem to find the words to truly express my feelings today.  

    Mass this morning was beautiful. It was full of light and hope and was filled to the walls with a worshiping and joyful congregation.  

    There was laughter and a sense of community.  

    It was joyful and I left with a feeling of peace and gratitude.  

    Yet, as I write this I also feel quiet inside.  

    I feel humbled…  

    I feel peaceful…

    I feel blessed…

    And I feel God’s love. 

    I wish you and your family a beautiful Easter Sunday.  May God’s love fill your hearts and inspire you to “live in the light of the risen Christ”.  

    Alleluia! Risen Lord, we celebrate Your victory over darkness today. Thank You for the gift of new life and the joy that never ends. Fill our hearts with Your light and let our lives reflect Your glorious hope. Amen!
