The Lord has risen from the dead, as he said; let us all exult and rejoice, for he reigns for all eternity, alleluia.
Acts 2:14, 22-33; Ps 16(15):1-2a, 5. 7-8. 9-10. 11; Matthew 28:8-15
We often miss today's readings - after the very busy Triduum, with all the energy it uses, today is quite rightly, a day of rest! And this year at St Gregorys we welcomed 13 people (mostly, younger adults) into the church.
The Women today meet Jesus, having previously found the perplexingly empty tomb, and are overcome with relief again - it is today that the joy of Easter really comes out! And it was the women who were the first apostles of the Good News - they were sent to the men to tell them the resurrection has happened, and to meet Jesus back in Galilee.
The Lord is Risen - he is risen indeed! Alleluia!
