An Easter Message from Fr. Ed

Fr. Ed Smith

HAPPY EASTER!

Welcome to Latin class from an old Latin teacher. The words: Christus surrexit! Surrexit vere, Alleluia! are how we would wish someone ‘Happy Easter” in the Latin language. The literal translation is: “Christ is risen! He is truly risen, Alleluia!”

These words reflect the beauty and the power of Easter and why it is the most important day of the Church’s year. Jesus takes on a human nature, undergoes great suffering, and is put to death on a cross. But that is not the last word. “Surrexit!” He is risen! Jesus is victorious over death and calls us to follow Him to Life.

May God bless you on this Easter Sunday as we celebrate the gift of Jesus who loved us even to the point of accepting death, and who loves us now, accepting us as we are and leading us to a life of peace, purpose and joy!

Let us all join together as Christians, knowing that we have been redeemed by Jesus, and that He, the Risen Christ, is with us every day!

God bless you all.

Fr. Ed
