Weekly Reflection

Easter Sunday - He Is Risen

04-05-2026 | Fr. Jess Ty

Dear Family of God,

What does it mean to us that Christ is risen? The Catechism of the Catholic Church teaches us that “Christ’s Resurrection is the fulfillment of the promises both of the Old Testament and of Jesus himself during his earthly life. (CCC 652). “The truth of Jesus’ divinity is confirmed by his resurrection.” (CCC653).
