On this Glorious Easter Morning, let us celebrate and basque in awe and overwhelming joy that the darkness of pain and death is over. The silence and absence of Holy Saturday is no more, never to be repeated! The heavy stone has been rolled back and the tomb is empty because Christ is Risen and has conquered it all! So let the Light of the Crucified Christ has risen and shines into our lives and brings that dazzling light into in our world! Let us celebrate with immense joy this most special morning because the reign of Gods love has triumphed and has conquered pain and suffering for evermore!

So rejoice! Let us shout and sing for joy and thank God for this Blessed Day and ask Him to continue His good work in us. Let us be open to Him supporting us to strive to do better, strive more to help others, to carry their pain, their suffering and demonstrate that pain and suffering and ultimately death have been conquered and that Love reigns and will always triumph over even death itself.

On behalf of Fr Abbot and the Monastic Community, together with the Parish Team, I would like to wish you all, your families, and friends, a wonderful Day and weeks of Resurrection full of peace and joy.

May the Joy of the Risen Lord fill you with love and hope now and evermore!
