******************************************
Dear Parishioners in the Risen Lord
The Lord is truly risen. This is the truth of Easter. This is the truth that we celebrate.
This is the truth that we give witness to. This is the truth of Easter. Our Lord Jesus
Christ who died on the Cross has risen and is now alive. He rose from the dead and
opened for us eternal life with God. In the Gospel, the message of the Angel to the
women who went to see the tomb is encouraging: “Do not be afraid; I know that you
are looking for Jesus who was crucified. He is not here; for he has been raised, as he
said. Come, see the place where he lay. Then go quickly and tell his disciples, ‘He
has been raised from the dead, and indeed he is going ahead of you to Galilee; there
you will see him.’” (Mt. 28.5-7) Like Mary Magdalene and the other Mary, this
good news should be a cause of great joy for us!
This is the truth that we celebrate. Our Lord Jesus Christ is with us and will forever
be present in our midst. He is true to his promise. He is alive. He wants to meet us in
Galilee. What is the significance of Galilee? It was Jesus’ home. It was where Jesus’
followers lived. It was also the place where many significant events took place as
Jesus fulfills his mission. Even now, Jesus wants to meet us where we live. He
wants to find a dwelling there. He wants to entrust us with a mission of making his presence known and experienced by everyone.
My sincere appreciation to all of you for making our Lenten and Easter celebrations
prayerful and beautiful. Let us continue to re-
new our faith in the Risen Lord as we gather
daily and weekly to celebrate God’s everlasting
presence among us in the Eucharist.
With my Easter prayers and blessings,
Fr. Victor Fernandes ocd

PRAYER FOR PRIEST Lord Jesus Christ, You love
Your church and those called
to share Your priesthood!
With our love and prayers, we
join You in asking our Heav-
enly Father to continue to
pour out His gifts of holiness ,
compassion and ardent zeal
on your priests everywhere.
Inspire each of them to offer
his life as an Ambassador of Christ, bringing reconciliation
and healing to the world.
Mary, Mother of all Priests,
inspire us to live in peace and
joy and pray this prayer with
us. Amen.
NO ONE IS BORN A PRIEST
Priests are made by prayer and
with the help of the community.
If you feel that our Lord may be
calling you to serve Him in
ordained ministry, we invite
you to contact us to begin your
vocational discernment.
Please do all you can to en-
courage priestly and religious
vocations. Your prayers and
support make a difference.
LOVE OVERCAME Emerging from a cold tomb All the truth, majesty and creativity of a living God Transforming a broken heart Making a quiet return, in a still and sorrowful garden The grave stone rolled away, to release redemptive love Jesus resurrected and restored Comforts a weeping woman Speaks with travellers on a journey Meets with his faithful friends And they bow down before Christ alive And acknowledged that the saviour has arrived That the word of God has come alive And that the extraordinary transformation of heaven and earth Is complete "Love Overcame" copyright © 2014 Julie Palmer
PRAYER FOR
VOCATIONS
O Loving God,
inspire your people to
promote and to answer
the call to Priestly and
Religious Life.
Remove fears and
doubts
from their hearts.
Give them the Spirit`s
gifts of wisdom
and courage. We ask
this in Jesus name.
