Easter blessings - the WHOLE Easter season!

Jesus always speaks about hope; a hope that is not based on chances that things will get better—or at least not any worse. His hope is built upon the promise that, whatever happens, God will stay with us at all times, in all places. God is the God of Life!

Jesus' passion is the time from the Last Supper to his death on the cross, during which he shows his great love for us.

We are reminded tonight that God always nourishes his people. Jesus fed his followers by multiplying loaves and fishes. Then he fed his apostles at the Last Supper.

Jesus was welcomed by the people with cheers and palms—a symbol of victory and sign that "all is well."

During the Triduum we celebrate the core mystery of our Christian faith: we ritualize Jesus' transition from life to death to risen life, and our own participation in that timeless mystery.

[...] There is so much more that could be said about her and her life but bottom line, as we give thanks to God today for Saint Katharine Drexel, let us first, consider ourselves fortunate to be a faith community named for her, knowing that we can live our call to holiness and our life as brothers and sisters in Christ by emulating all that she held sacred and of value.

Parish scrutinies on the 3rd, 4th, and 5th Sundays of Lent: “The scrutinies are meant to uncover, then heal all that is weak, defective or sinful (and) to bring out, then strengthen all that is upright, strong, and good.” That seems to be a good aspiration for any Christian, and hopefully these rituals will help us as a faith community going into the final weeks of Lent and heading to Easter.
