Fr. John Paul Walker's Easter Vigil homily connects the evening rain to Isaiah’s promise that God’s word will water the earth and bear fruit. He proclaims Christ’s victorious resurrection, conquering sin, death, and hell, and rejoices that 28 new Catholics will soon receive the sacraments of initiation. Inviting all to share the holy women’s “fearful yet overjoyed” awe at the empty tomb, he calls the parish to let the Risen Christ’s life fill and transform them.
