Spiritual Message from Fr David:
There is a clear contrast between the 55 days of Great Lent and the Holy 50 days immediately following our Lord’s Ressurection. Our church takes us on two journeys. In the Lenten gospels, the church takes us on a journey of discovery, by reminding us of stories of repentants, stories that highlight Christ’s mercy and compassion towards us, His children. One of the main underlying questions is, “Who is Jesus?”.
Following Christ’s Resurrection, our church joyfully answers this question by taking us on another journey answering this very question by highlighting the “I Am”s. Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and Life, He is the Light of the world, the Living water etc.
The most important question in all of this is what do YOU make of these two journeys?
Who is Jesus to YOU? What role does He play in YOUR personal life?
Christ is Risen! Indeed He is Risen!
