Christ is Risen, Alleluia!


EASTER PEOPLE
Reflection
The Easter season is an invitation to live out the meaning of our baptism.
Do we continue to resist sin and life for God?
Are we truly pursuing a relationship with Jesus?
Are we living as Easter people, focused on the living light and not desolate darkness?

During Lent and Easter, God has renewed his people. He has called us back from sin and death; he invites us to remain close to his son, Jesus. We are to let the teachings of Jesus -His love for others, His readiness to serve; His strong stand for what is pleasing to God- become an important part in our life. We must remember that Jesus is always with us to help us. Alleluia!

Prayer
Lord Jesus, our brother,
We love you.
Help us to love you more.
Have mercy on all your people
Especially those who have been
baptized in your name

Stir up your Spirit in our hearts,
and teach us to keep your
commandments,
to carry our daily cross with you,
and to see you in all we meet.

Lord Jesus,
help us to be your Easter people today.

Holy Mary,
Pray for the people of God.

The Lord is Risen, Amen, Alleluia!
We share in his new life. Amen, Alleluia!
