READINGS FOR EASTER SUNDAY
Acts 10:34-43; Colossians 3:1-4; John 20:1-9
IN THE HOUSE OF GOD
"Come to the Feast"
Last Sunday evening, we had an Easter Vigil walk-through for the Elect
and Candidates for Baptism, Confirmation, and First Eucharist. Then our new Tongan choir
showed up to rehearse for a Mass they are celebrating today at 2:00pm today. In the wings,
the young cast of the Passion Play waited patiently for the church to clear so they could
rehearse. On Monday night, three of our parish choirs joined together to rehearse music
for the Easter Triduum. Matching the excitement of these many groups for the celebration
of Palm Sunday and the Triduum was the exhilaration (and exhaustion!) of the Women’s
Guild and their many friends following their successful Fashion Show. We have so much to
celebrate! Day in and day out, God blesses this community with tremendous love and energy.
It is the love of Jesus Christ flowing from his dying and rising. I hope you will come to
celebrate our most sacred days this Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. -
