Take a Palm

Jesus accepts to lose everything, even life, for love of us.To take a palm branch is to accept to follow Jesusto acclaim our Lord and like him to pass from death to life.

To the end!

Tonightwe celebrate and welcomethe love of Christ,a concrete lovewhich is expressed in service,a complete love, "To the end" (Jn 13,1).By sharing in hisEucharistic presence,we commit ourselvesto love one anotherin the same manner..Suffering that bears fruit

If the Church stops todayat the foot of the cross of Christ,it is above all to penetrate themystery and be united to it:yes, suffering can be fruitful.

On the night of Holy Saturday, let us meditate on the origin of this new world born in silence.

Resurrection of the Lord Sunday

You were raised with Christ !On Easter morning, Peter and Johndo not see the Risen,but the open tomband folded linens.These are signs of the Absent.Yet it is he who drawsthe look of their hearttowards his presence.Christ is alive. He is risen. The testimony of Mary Magdalene and that of Peter and Johnare addressed to us today. They can only be accepted in faith.This week is the week of joy!we celebrate the Resurrection of Jesus.It is a real and profound joy,based on the certainty that henceforththe risen Christ will never die,but that he is alive and he worksin the Church and in the world.

Pope Francis

The Sisters Disciples of Jesus Master wish you:Happy Easter!

May the Risen Christ fill you with His Peace and Blessing!http://pages.videotron.com/ddm/
