Introduction
a) To the Holy Mass
Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ,
Good morning! Happy
Easter to all!
We celebrate today with great joy and deep gratitude the
Resurrection of Christ, Our Lord and Savior.
Through His Suffering, Death and Rising, Christ freed us from
sin and eternal loss. We sing thankful
hymns for God’s compassionate and forgiving love in Christ Who so loved us that
He died for us in order that we can live.
Please all stand for the entrance hymn.
b) To the Readings
-
Acts 10:34a. 37-43
Saint Peter’s sermon on the
resurrection of Christ the Lord expresses the main concern of the Church about
preaching the saving truth that Christ suffered, died and rose again so as to
break the chains of slavery to sins.
-
1 Cor 5:6b-8
Christians celebrate the Lord’s
Resurrection more completely and meaningfully by leaving their old and sinful
lives in the tomb and embracing the new way of life in communion with Christ.
