Knowledge of the great hope that is ours brings a profound joy that draws others to Christ.

Jesus' ministry on earth lasted a short time. Through the working of the Holy Spirit the Church continues the saving work of Jesus.

That which was destroyed by the sin of the first Adam is now being restored by the new Adam, Jesus our Savior.

Baptism begins a lifetime journey. The Eucharist is the primary way God has given us to be sustained on the journey.

We can bring the Gospel to others only when we do so for the love of Jesus our Savior and when we guided by Him and nourished by Him. Our chief nourishment is the Eucharist.

Jesus was sent to proclaim God's mercy. The church has received the mission to proclaim the mercy of God.

No one saw Jesus rise from the dead. However eleven of the twelve gave their lives as witness that He is risen.

We process today into the Church, but in our minds eye we are part of that great procession into the Heavenly Kingdom; we join the countless members of Christ who are part of that procession.

We answer the Question “Do You Believe?”, not with words, but with our lives. When Christ lives in us, the fruit of his Spirit will be manifest in our daily lives.

Like the blind man in the gospel reading, we do not earn God's gift. All God's gifts to us, especially salvation, is the fruit of God's generous, merciful love
