HE IS RISEN





He is Risen-  Wayne Pascall


He is risen: His sacred head
Rests upon the cloth no more;
He is risen: to one side
Of the lonely sepulcher
Lies the shroud He tossed away:
Like a strong man flushed with wine
Wakes the Lord upon this day.

                            Alessandro Manzoni




 “Future generations will look back on this as the long Lent of 2020, a time when disease and death suddenly darkened the whole earth... But we know that our Redeemer lives. Even in this extraordinary and challenging moment, we give thanks for what Jesus Christ has done for us by his life, death, and resurrection. Even now, we marvel at the beautiful mystery of our salvation, how precious each one of us is in the eyes of God.”

                                                  Archbishop Jose Gomez, Los Angeles
