Homily - 6th Sunday of Easter - 5th May 2024
On this sixth Sunday of Easter let us reflect on our Entrance Antiphon which says this -
"Proclaim a joyful sound and let it be heard; Proclaim to the ends of the earth...alleluia. "
Our Opening Prayer says this -
"Grant, almighty God,
That we may celebrate with heartfelt Devotion these days of joy,
Which we keep in honour of the risen Lord, And that what we relive in remembrance
We may always hold to in what we do..."
We continue these weeks of Eastertide celebrating the Resurrection of Jesus from the dead.
The Antiphon and the Opening Prayer speak of joyfulness and celebration.
Easter should be producing both joy and celebration in each of us personally and in the parishes of our Church.
This is because we are celebrating that someone has come back from the dead!
And this is not just an ordinary person, this person is God who has come to the earth to take on human flesh. This is our God in the flesh.
He rose from the dead, He is Alive, He promise each of us that He will be with us for all of our lives.
The Lord is Risen from the dead to be with us Alleluia. Let us celebrate and rejoice.
