Waiting for the sacred and Holy Resurrection of Lord Jesus Christ

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us
Perhaps this Lent has been for us a journey into “death,” into letting go of things, circumstances, perhaps even people who have blocked the path of Life, and have prevented our growing “into union” with Jesus. If so, the promise of this Holy Night burns brightly: you, too, shall live! Perhaps this Lent has found us “holding on for dear life,” clinging to other loves and satisfactions that still block our path.
The Risen Jesus calls to us: Do not be afraid. Die with me, so that with me you may have life!
Let us humbly pray

Eternal Father,
You teach us in both the Old and the New Testament
to celebrate this Passover mystery.
Help us to understand Your great Love for us.
May the goodness You now show us
confirm our Hope in Your future Mercy.
We ask this through Christ
our Lord and Saviour . Amen

Eternal Father, I offer You the most precious blood of thy Divine Son, Jesus, in union with the Masses said throughout the world today, for all the Holy Souls in Purgatory, for sinners everywhere, for sinners in the universal church, for those in my own home and in my family. Amen
