The celebration of Easter Day

Easter brings joy and happiness to people around the world. Christ Jesus is the Light within us, the true meaning behind Easter. The celebration of Easter Day serves as a reminder of the resurrection of Jesus Christ, which is the cornerstone of our faith and the source of our hope for eternal glory. As we commemorate this occasion, let us allow the light and love of Christ to illuminate our hearts, guiding us to be beacons of his gospel on earth. Let us boldly proclaim the good news that Jesus Christ has risen, spreading the message of hope and salvation. As we commemorate this day of Easter, it is crucial to remember the essence behind this celebration. The resurrection of Jesus Christ stands as a testament to our faith and the promise of eternal glory. May the radiance and affection of Christ perpetually govern our hearts, enabling us to radiate his divine light and serve as living testimonies to his gospel in this earthly realm. Go forth and proclaim the glorious news of Jesus Christ's resurrection! Hallelujah. Wishing a joyful Easter to all! May the transformative impact of his resurrection persistently reveal itself in our lives, instilling within us the unwavering assurance of his hope. Today's scripture reading from Mark 16:1-8 recounts the story of Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome as they visited the tomb of Jesus. Despite their initial concerns about the stone blocking the entrance, they were met with a miraculous sight of an angel who proclaimed the resurrection of Christ. This serves as a powerful reminder of the triumph of life over death and the fulfillment of God's promise to humanity.
