4 LETS DRESS OUR BEST TO GIVE THE LORD OUR SUNDAY S BEST! APRIL 16, 2017 EASTER SUNDAY "Then they went away quickly from the tomb, fearful yet overjoyed." The two Marys were in for a surprise. They had come, as usual, to do the ritual anointing of their dead friend's body. But on their arrival, not only was there an earthquake, there was also an angel whose "appearance was like lightning" and whose "clothing was white as snow." The brave guards were so scared they "became like dead men," but the women managed to stay on their feet and hear the words of the angel. Guess what! Jesus isn't here. He's been raised from the dead. Now go share the good news! No wonder these women were feeling a mixture of emotions! They were frightened by these incredible supernatural events, but overjoyed that Jesus was alive again. Just imagine their joy when "Jesus met them on their way," and they were able to embrace him and worship him. What a day! Now, we too join in the celebration of this day of all days. Every Easter, we recall these glorious events, but we do more than just remember. We also rejoice that our Lord is alive right now, that death and sin have been conquered forever, that the gates of heaven are open for us. The joy of Easter is not a nostalgic kind of happiness that only looks backwards. It is instead a call to rejoice in the gifts that we can enjoy today and in eternity. We may not have seen the angel, felt the earthquake, or kissed the feet of the risen Lord, but we are nonetheless the beneficiaries of this momentous event. We are an Easter people, a people in the hands of a loving God whose power can overcome all the terrible threats and trials of existence with the amazing gift of eternal life.

God s love does not distinguish between the infant in the mother s womb or the child or the youth or the adult or the older person. In each one God sees His image and likeness. Human life is a manifestation of God and His glory. Pope Benedict XVI The Legend of the Easter Egg Simon of Cyrene was walking to the marketplace in Jerusalem with a basket of eggs, when he came upon a crowd of people. A roman soldier came over to Simon and said, Follow me. Simon was told to help a man called Jesus carry a heavy cross that Jesus would be crucified on later that day. Simon put his basket of eggs to the side and went to help Jesus. Along the difficult way, Simon became friends with the man who was going to die. Jesus shared with Simon some of His teachings. Before the soldiers nailed Jesus to the cross, He thanked Simon and whispered in his ear, I will give you a sign that I have spoken the truth and you will know that I have risen from the dead. Later that day, Simon was saddened by the death of Jesus. He was hoping the promise that Jesus made would come true, but he received no sign. After two days went by, Simon suddenly remembered his basket of eggs. He ran to the marketplace to find them. When he looked in the basket, he saw the sign that Jesus had promised. Each of the eggs had changed. Some were brightly colored and others had beautiful designs on them. Simon knew that Jesus was alive! As he ran to tell his friends, shouts of Alleluia were heard all over Jerusalem.
