Easter is a time for coming home. We would like to welcome and wish a Happy and Blessed Easter to all our visitors who are here celebrating with us this weekend.
Easter is the feast of all feasts, as the saints have proclaimed throughout the ages. Easter is the great cause for rejoicing because it is the promise of eternal life fulfilled. Jesus our Lord and Saviour has broken the bonds of death and restored us to life. Saints have broadcast the message unceasingly, from past to present centuries. “Yes, Christ is truly risen, and we are witnesses of this. We proclaim this witness to the world, so that the joy which is ours will reach countless other hearts, kindling in them the light of the hope which does not disappoint.”
“Christ’s resurrection is the strength, the secret of Christianity. It is not a question of mythology or of mere symbolism, but of a concrete event. It is confirmed by sure and convincing proofs. The acceptance of this truth, although the fruit of the Holy Spirit’s grace, rests at the same time on a solid historical base. The new effort of evangelization can begin only from a renewed experience of this Mystery, accepted in faith and witnessed to in life.” – St. John Paul II,
Happy Easter from Father Dominic and Father Simon.
