The
Lord is Risen.
“This
day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and
be glad” (Psalm 118:24)
This day we are remade, let us rejoice and
be glad. On behalf of our parish staff I
wish you all a happy and peaceful Easter.
Easter Sunday is a day all about seeking.
The early Christian communities gathered
around the Apostles, seeking more about
the life and ministry of the Lord Jesus.
Saint Paul told the baptized Colossians to
“seek what is above.” Mary of
Magdala went to the tomb, seeking to find
the Lord’s body so that she could
anoint it. We come to church on Easter
Sunday, seeking many things. For some of
us, this is a once a year journey, when we
seek connection with the foundations of
the Christian faith. For others, this day
is the culmination of a long journey of
Lenten repentance. For the newly baptized,
this is the first day of a new life filled
with promise and expectation. Whatever it
is that we seek, let us be inspired by the
disciple whom Jesus loved who, when he saw
the wrappings of cloth inside the empty
tomb, “he saw and believed.” Let
us keep in mind as we seek the Lord, that
the Risen Lord continually seeks us.
Congratulations!
Henry
and Martha Costa, who
celebrated their 65th
wedding anniversary on
April
4!
