Welcome! This blog contains brief reflections of mine on the Scripture readings for each weekend Mass and other Holy Days, too. These readings follow those used by the Roman Catholic Church in the Revised Common Lectionary, which goes in a three-year cycle. These posts typically appear within a day or two of the specified Mass.

March 27, 2016: Easter Sunday of the Resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ
A new order of the ages has dawned now that Jesus Christ has resurrected from the dead, a reality announced by the Empty Tomb to those first disciples, and us. Our eyes are now fixed upward toward Heaven, where we can look forward to being in God's presence because Christ has won it for us by His Paschal Mystery. And as we strive toward Heaven, we proclaim this new reality that Christ is Risen, and lives forever, even in us His people whom He has brought to new Life, who have witnessed this Life abounding.
