APRIL 5 | EASTER SUNDAY
Matthew 28:6 – “He is not here; for he has been raised, just as he said.”
Today is Easter Sunday, the joyful celebration of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. It marks the fulfillment of the Paschal Triduum, where Christ’s Passion and Death lead to His victory over sin and death. Easter is the greatest feast of the Church, proclaiming that Jesus is alive and that new life is given to all who believe in Him.
The word “Easter” is associated with new life and rising, reflecting the central message of the Resurrection. It is a day of triumph, where the sorrow of the cross is transformed into joy, and darkness is overcome by light. The empty tomb is a powerful sign that death does not have the final word—God’s love does.
Easter Sunday reminds us that no matter how difficult life may be, hope is always present. Just as Christ rose from the dead, we too are called to rise from our struggles, sins, and failures, and live a new life filled with hope and love.
