Your Information
An Easter
Reflection from a
Parishioner:
“As
my wife and I attended the Easter Vigil
Mass last Saturday, April 11, Rev. Eugene
Tungol eloquently in his homily,
reiterated the true meaning of the Easter
Vigil celebration. DARKNESS – The
Easter Vigil begins with darkness. The
darkness itself is the first movement of
the liturgy, so we begin our preparation
with that darkness. It represents all
darkness, and all the meanings of
darkness-devoid of light, evil thoughts,
motivations, deeds: all that is hidden and
secret, deceitful and dishonest, divisive
and abusive, immortal and sinful.
It’s the darkness of our world, and
the darkness in my heart. If I come to the
vigil and restlessly and impatiently
fidget in the dark ‘until something
happens,’ I’ll miss the power of
what is about to happen. So we prepare by
readying ourselves to experience the
darkness. It is distasteful and
reprehensible, embarrassing and humbling,
fearful and despairing. Then a LIGHT is
struck. It breaks into the darkness. The
candle lit from the new fire is then
processed into the community, and we
receive its light and experience the power
of that light as it grows. When the candle
is brought in front and center,
we
celebrate
the Easter Proclamation. This prayer
sounds like a Eucharistic Prayer. We give
thanks and praise over this symbol of the
light of Christ in our presence and
‘concentrate’ on it as
Christ’s presence among us. Reading
this proclamation carefully and letting
its joyful song into our hearts is a
wonderful way to prepare to feel its
exultant praise at the Vigil. I have never
attended an Easter Vigil Mass as beautiful
as what I experienced last Holy Thursday.
Belated Happy Easter to
everybody!”

Reflections
GOSPEL:
Luke 24:35-48
This reading from Luke's
Gospel could be called "The Ghost Story
That Wasn't." Two disciples who had just
met the risen Jesus on the road are
telling their story to the other
disciples. Then right in the middle of
their story, Jesus appears and says,
"Peace be with you." The frightened
disciples think they are seeing a ghost.
Jesus has to show them his wounds and even
eat a piece of fish to prove that he is
real. The good news is so good that the
disciples find it hard to believe at
first.
Because they are still not sure what
to make of him, Jesus explains how he has
fulfilled the Scriptures by his suffering,
death and resurrection. In his name, they
will go out to preach repentance and
forgiveness of sins for all
people.
1.) Recall a time when a friend or
family member appeared "out of the blue"
when he or she was not expected. How did
you respond?
2.) What are some of the reasons you
think the disciples had such a hard time
believing that their unexpected visitor
was really Jesus?
3.) Why do you think disciples then
and now do not always understand the
Scriptures?
