THIRD SUNDAY OF EASTER (YEAR B)
By his resurrection Christ redeemed us from sin, conquered our fears and restored us to the fulness of His joy says the Archbishop Most Rev. Valerian Okeke. He noted that this joy bought with a very high price of the Paschal Mystery can only be sustained by keeping God's commandments. Hence, encouraging us to embrace this joy by true repentance, he challenges us equally to be messengers of God's joy. May the joy of the Lord ever be your portion.

-"To those who suffer, God does not provide arguments which explain everything; rather, his response is that of an accompanying presence, a history of goodness which touches every story of suffering and opens up a ray of light." - Pope Francis "Lumen Fidei,".
