APRIL 15, 2018 From the Acts of the Apostles: Peter said to the people... The author of life you put to death, but God raised Him from the dead; of this we are witnesses. Reflection: After curing a crippled beggar, Peter announces what the first generation of Christians and we believe: Christ is raised from the dead and a new age has dawned. The old order of death is passing away. Jesus is alive and his followers are showing in their words and actions bold signs of his healing presence working with them. So, we ask ourselves: - Can I name some ways I witness to my faith in the Risen Christ? - How am I a sign to others of Jesus healing presence in the world?
