Dear Parishioners,
Filled with Easter Joy, we are invited to contemplate the figure of Mary of Magdala. Out
of love, she stood by the cross, she followed them when they brought Him to the
Tomb and saw the seals placed on the stone and the guard being mounted.
She returned the following day to find that that stone had been rolled
away. Not even entering, and her love for the Master burning in her
heart, she ran to the disciples to announce the news!
May we, following the example of Mary of Magdala, keep watch
and run to others to share the good news of His Resurrection. This is
news that must not be kept to ourselves; it needs to be shared with those who
are in need of Hope and Life. May we be bold in bringing the good news of the
Resurrection of the Lord to all who are disillusioned and disappointed by what
the world offers.
Like Mary, may we run towards others, our hearts burning with the Love
of the Risen One.
Happy Easter to All!
