The Lord\'s Day |
|
The Sunday Eucharist is a loving encounter with the Lord that we cannot do without. When you recognize him 'at the breaking of bread,' like the disciples at Emmaus, you will become his companions. He will help you to grow and to give the best of yourselves.

The Lord\'s Day |
|
Christ's Resurrection happened on the first day of the week, which in the Scriptures is the day of the world's creation. For this very reason Sunday was considered by the early Christian community as the day on which the new world began, the one on which, with Christ's victory over death, the new creation began.

The Son of God, becoming flesh, could become bread and in this way be the nourishment of his people journeying toward the promised land of heaven. We need this bread to cope with the toil and exhaustion of the journey. Sunday, day of the Lord, is the propitious occasion to draw strength from him, who is the Lord of life.

We must rediscover the joy of Christian Sundays. We must proudly rediscover the privilege of sharing in the Eucharist, which is the sacrament of the renewed world.

Sunday needs to be rediscovered in its Christian roots, beginning with the celebration of the Risen Lord.
