Happy Easter!
"Christ died for our sins, in accordance with the scriptures; he was buried; and he was raised to life on the third day, in accordance with the scriptures. He appeared first to Cephas and secondly to the Twelve."
"Every time we celebrate the Eucharist in the Church, we recall the death of the Savior, we proclaim his Resurrection as we await his return. Thus no sacrament is greater or more precious than that of the Eucharist; and when we receive Communion, we are incorporated into Christ. Our life is transformed and taken up by the Lord."
"The Eucharistic mystery is in fact the "summit of evangelization" (Lumen gentium, n. 28), for it is the most eminent testimony to Christ's Resurrection. "
~ Blessed Pope John Paul II, May 28, 1996

Happy Easter, Russ!
We had a catechumen and two candidates come into Holy Mother Church last night at our Easter Vigil. The catechumen was crying throughout the Mass, she was so happy. I know exactly how she felt.
So much grace ! God bless them, and you too
