Easter Blessings

Dear Brothers and Sisters in the Risen Christ,

Alleluia! He is indeed risen!

As we begin this glorious 50-day season of Easter—a time in which we celebrate fully the Lord’s triumph over sin and death—may our hearts be filled with new life and may our spirits soar!

To help us begin this celebration, I am happy to offer you this brief video reflection on the Gospel story of Peter and John running to the tomb upon hearing the news that Christ had been raised from the dead. May each of us run without hesitation into the empty tombs of our lives, confident that, in doing so, we will encounter the Risen Christ and share in his eternal life.

Easter Blessings!
