Easter, the feast of the Resurrection, en-

courages us to be Resurrection people. The 

joyful message of the Gospel explains the 

empty tomb and the experience of Mary 

Magdalene, Peter and John.  

     As Resurrection people, we are not to 

live buried in the tomb of our habits, sins and addictions. It gives us the Good News that no tomb can hold us down anymore. Not the tomb of despair, discouragement, doubt, nor even death. Rather, we are called to live a joyful and peaceful life constantly experiencing the real presence of the Risen Lord in all the events of our lives.   

This is the day the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad! We too can proclaim, I have seen the Lord, as we continue to hope even when our hope seems unanswered - we share in the power of Jesus’ Resurrection. The message of Easter is 

that nothing can destroy us - not pain, sin, rejection nor death because Christ has conquered all these, and we too conquer them as we put our faith in Him.  

      May the Risen Christ charge you will zeal and faith as you go forth in His Name. 

Light of Christ guide our way! 

A Blessed Easter to you, 

Father Michael, Father Peter, Father Martin, Sister Jolene, Deacons, and staff
