Easter has arrived! It is wonderful to celebrate Holy Week and the Easter season as a community of faith. I want to welcome all of you to Mass this weekend, especially our out-of-town guests and family members. I have enjoyed journeying through the Lenten season with all of you as we have explored the theme of gratitude. I have enjoyed praying the stations of the cross on Friday evenings and the Lenten meals we have had together as a parish faith community. We look forward to a joyful Easter season together as we celebrate Easter weekend and as we journey toward the celebration of Pentecost.
The disciples tried to make sense of what they encountered in the empty tomb on Easter morning. We must make sense of the resurrected Christ in the reality of our lives and our world, especially with all the confusing messages and noise that we hear in our secular world. We are called to live out the reality of the resurrection in our lives each day. Our celebration of the Easter season will help us make sense of this reality. Blessings to all of you - Father Lincoln.
