Happy Easter

Happy Easter to you! Christ is risen! He is risen, indeed! Remember, we have FIFTY days of Easter so be filled with the joy of your happiness in Christ during the entire season and beyond!

My Easter gift to you is this beautiful meditation by our Holy Father from his book Behold the Pierced One...

“Christ summons us to find heaven in him, to discover him in others and thus to be heaven to each other. He calls us to let heaven shine into this world, to build heaven here. Jesus stretches out his hand to us in his Easter message, in the mystery of the sacraments, so that Easter may be now, so that the light of heaven may shine forth in this world and the doors may be opened. Let us take his hand! Amen.”

"Cristos Vascros" Russian for "Christ has Risen!"
Also, in Russian the word for "Sunday" actually means day of the ressurection
