Ponderings of Grace - Easter Sunday

 

Easter Sunday

 

As we look over the Church's springtime, can we see our own growth personally, in our
local communities, in our Christian Growth groups, in our Congregation? Can Father Nepper's words be applied to us still today as they did when he first penned them: "To me, a Sister of Saint Joseph is like a sunflower (French: tournesol ) - always following the sun/Son."

                          Sunflowers, outer and inner,
                                      light and dark, are we,
                                                   tending others in need.
                                                  ( Sunflowers , Author Unknown)

Can we - each of us - hear Jesus pronounce our names and recognize Him in the intimacy of His voice? He is risen!!! Rejoice!!! Alleluia!!!
