State Chaplain's Easter Message
EASTER MESSAGE 2019
The three holiest and most important days for Catholics is called the Easter Triduum it begins at sunset on Holy Thursday and culminates with the Easter Vigil. The cross of JESUS CHRIST is central to this three day celebration:
THE CROSS OF JESUS CHRIST
The cross is the hope of Christians
The cross is the resurrection of the dead
The cross is the way of the lost
The cross is the savior of the lost
The cross is the staff of the lame
The cross is the guide of the blind
The cross is the strength of the weak
The cross is the doctor of the sick
The cross is the focus of the priests
The cross is the hope of the hopeless
The cross is the freedom of the slaves
The cross is the power of the kings
The cross is the water of the seeds
The cross is the consolation of the grieving
The cross is the source of those who seek water
The cross is the cloth of the naked.
We thank you, God our Father for the CROSS OF JESUS CHRIST.
May you and your families have a BLESSED, PEACEFUL and JOYFUL EASTER, 2019.
