Grace and peace to you in the name of our Risen Lord.
On this sacred day of Easter, we celebrate not merely an event in history, but the very foundation of our faith—the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, the triumph of divine love over death, of light over darkness, and of hope over despair.
In the empty tomb, we find the fullness of God’s promise.
In Christ’s rising, we are no longer bound by sin and mortality, but invited into the eternal life of grace.
The Resurrection is not only proof of God’s power—it is the beginning of a new creation. It calls each of us to rise with Christ, to be transformed in heart and mind, and to become witnesses of the Kingdom that is both present and yet to come.
Let this Easter not be a passing celebration, but a profound renewal. Let us embrace the Paschal Mystery, where in dying with Christ, we are born again to new life. May our faith communities become living signs of the Resurrection—where justice is proclaimed, mercy is practiced, and love is poured out without measure.
As a shepherd, I pray that the Risen Christ meets you in every place of pain and uncertainty, and speaks peace into your soul. May the power of the Resurrection lead us all deeper into communion with God, and with one another.
