Happy Lord’s Day!

Happy Resurrection Sunday!

Happy Easter!

Today is Easter Sunday or Resurrection Sunday as I like to call it for all three branches of Christianity this year! The reading comes from the Tridentine Mass for this Resurrection Sunday and is the Gospel according to St. Mark 16:1-7.

The reading this Sunday is focused on the resurrection of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

In this Resurrection Message, the focus is on the resurrection of Christ. Christ paid the ultimate sacrifice, the sacrifice of sacrifices, once and for all sacrifice on Mount Calvary so that we might be saved from eternal damnation, set free from the bondage of sin, and be able to live with Him in Heaven forever. The resurrection is the hope of that promise fulfilled and by Christ rising from the dead, so too we can rise from the grave of sin and death to new life in Christ forever. Because of Christ, we are free indeed!

To anyone and everyone belonging to the Christian faith on this April 20th, In the Year of Our Lord 2025, Happy Easter and Resurrection Sunday! Let us pray that we may all be one as Jesus is one with the Father in Heaven (St. John 17:21).

For those who entered the Church this year, Welcome Home! For those waiting to become Catholic and contemplating it, know of my prayers for you. For those thinking of returning home to the Catholic Church, Holy Mother Church, come and dine at the table. The Church is willing and ready to forgive and invite you back into the fold and restore you as if you’d never left. The Church is willing to restore you like the father who restored his lost son in the parable of the Prodigal Son (Luke 15:11-32). Christ has a plan to bring you to the fullness of truth on this earth in His Holy Catholic Church if you’re willing to listen and receive. Be patient as the Lord works in your life!

One final time, Happy Easter and Resurrection Sunday!

God Love You!
