A FRESH PERSPECTIVE ON THE SUNDAY READINGS
Second Sunday of Easter or Sunday of Divine Mercy
April 3, 2016
Before his election as Pope, our Holy Father as
Archbishop of Buenos Aires wrote “Only someone
who has encountered mercy, who has been caressed by the tenderness of mercy, is happy and
comfortable with the Lord.”
Have I offered this gift to someone else?
“Many signs and wonders were done among the
people at the hands of the apostles. They were all
together in Solomon’s portico. None of the others
dared to join them, but the people esteemed them.
Yet more than ever, believers in the Lord, great
numbers of men and women, were added to them...
Blessed are those who have not seen and have believed.”
The second Sunday of Easter, designated Divine Mercy
Sunday by St. John Paul II, and a key moment in the
Jubilee Year of Mercy finds us, not at Solomon’s portico
but in our homes and home parishes. The signs and
wonders of the early church are manifest again, as others, through our efforts and invitation, return to the life of
the church.
If each person would pause, pray, and then invite someone to experience the mercy of God and return to the
life of the church, how different would our parish life be.

Easter Hopes were very much in evidence at last weekend’s liturgies. The
Church was filled at all masses, and
overflowed at a few! It was a gathering
of believers who sought to really recognize their Lord and Savior. The celebrations of
this great feast are in and of themselves a revelation about each parish member. Are we doing
our best for Christ? Are we being the kind of witness that the Lord would want? We hope so.
Thus, the call is to assure that weekly mass, regular witness and true involvement in the parish
community will instill the presence of the Lord in
all we say and do.
