Easter Sunday Of The Resurrection Of The Lord Dear Faithful of the Archdiocese of St. Louis, I offer to you my deepest greetings of joy and peace on the Solemnity of the Resurrection of Our Lord Jesus Christ Happy Easter! Easter is to the Church year what Sunday is to each week a highlight of rest and rejoicing. Its vivid symbols of fire, water and exultant song remind us that Christ has overcome sin and death. Because of that we know, in the words of Pope Francis, that when everything is said and done, we are infinitely loved by God. Let us pray that the light of Christ will shine in our hearts this Easter, and reach out to others through us. We know that our Savior lives. Let us share with others the joy of knowing that they are loved by God! I ask that you keep in mind that the collection for Regina Cleri, the residence for our retired priests, is today. You know how generously the retired priests served you, and how you counted on them. Now, in turn, they count on you, and are grateful for your generous support and prayers. I pray these are days of blessing for you and your loved ones. Sincerely yours in Christ, Most Reverend Robert J. Carlson Archbishop of St. Louis

Easter changes forever the trinitarian God s place in all creation, including ours. If we say Amen to Christ risen, we are adopted into God s own family. If we accept Christ as the way, the truth, and the life, we win the wonderful consequences. Alleluia! He is risen as he said! Alleluia! Text, Philip J. Sandstrom, STD 2000, OCP. All rights reserved.
