Easter Message and Live Stream Mass Schedule from Father Senior Gregory
Dear Parishioners and Friends,
I wish, as in past years, you can walk into our Parish Church on Easter and see for yourself the resurrection symbols and altars decked with beautiful Easter lilies. Unfortunately, this year we are operating under circumstances that have never occurred before. Even though we cannot be together, we must still remember and celebrate this very important day of our Catholic faith. This is the day on which the Church commemorates Christ’s glorious resurrection. As we know, every Sunday we state our belief in that principal Christian truth as we recite the Nicene Creed.
When Jesus died on the cross on that Friday afternoon, even His closest friends believed that the Master’s life had come to an end, as many believed at that time and even today. For these people, death was the final act.
My friends in the faith, the resurrected Lord is alive! We meet Him often, even though we are not aware of this. He is present within the Church. You meet Him when you receive the Sacraments; and Jesus becomes present on the altar during Mass. He is present in so many ways.
Not only are we celebrating Christ’s glorious resurrection, but we are also celebrating our future resurrection and eternal life. “Because I live, you will also live” (John 14, 19), Jesus promises us.
Remember…Church is not the building; but rather we, the people, are the Church. Although the building is closed, you must remain open. Join us for Holy Week, Easter Sunday and future Sundays during these challenging times as we celebrate these events through social media on our sister parish’s Facebook page, Church of the Transfiguration.
Happy Easter! Wesolych Swiat Wielkanocnych!
Yours in Christ,
Very Rev. Gregory Mludzik, Pastor
