在今天基督復活主日,讓我們聽聽復活的耶穌細聲的給我們說:「祝你平安!」
復活節絕不是一天,也不只八天。復活節至耶穌升天的四十天,再加上等候聖神降臨的十天,這五十天都是復活節。讓我們靜靜的享受這五十天,有空時到聖堂,回味聖母、宗徒、聖女們和耶穌重聚時的喜樂;或在家打開聖經,讓復活的耶穌給我們解釋祂的道理,如同祂向前往厄瑪烏的兩位門徒講解了一樣。
我們所相信的是復活的救主,有了祂為我們的犧牲,我們會更有力量背起自己的十字架:病苦、貧窮、孤獨、磨難⋯⋯
祝各位復活節平安!
On this glorious day of the Lord’s Resurrection, let us pause and listen as the Risen Jesus gently speaks these words to each of us: “Peace be with you.”
Easter is far more than just a single day or an eight-day octave. The Easter season stretches across fifty days—from the Resurrection to the Ascension (forty days), and then through the ten days of waiting for the descend of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost. This entire season is a sacred time of joy and renewal.
Let us quietly savor these fifty days. When possible, visit the church and contemplate the joy shared by the Blessed Mother, the Apostles, and the holy women as they encountered the Risen Lord. Or simply open the Scriptures at home and allow the Risen Christ to speak to your heart, just as He did with the two disciples on the road to Emmaus.
We believe in a Risen Savior. Because He offered Himself for us, we can find the strength to carry our own crosses—whether they be illness, poverty, loneliness, or trials of any kind.
Wishing you and your loved ones, the peace of the Risen Christ this Easter season!

During Lent, many Catholics return to the sacrament of Penance, some after a few weeks, others after many years. Most of us approach Confession seeking forgiveness of sin and the alleviation of a guilty conscience. Perhaps to our surprise, the sacrament has even more to offer.
“The Church is not a servant of temporal power, but the Mystical Body of Christ, called to proclaim the truth of the Gospel — even when it is inconvenient or opposed by the spirit of the age.”
—Bishop Athanasius Schneider
Filmed at the @PFIC_DHS during the tour of the Major Relics of St. Thomas Aquinas, Fr. Gregory Pine, O.P., in partnership with the @ThomisticInst, preached on how St. Thomas translates divine wisdom into human vocabulary.
Every life is sacred, and many souls hang in the balance. The Dominican Friars stand on the front lines, preaching the Gospel of Life with charity and clarity.
Yesterday evening, in the Sándor Palace (of 🇭🇺 President @DrTamasSulyok ) I touched base with great- great- great grandfather Archduke Palatine Joseph.
He definitely had the snazzier outfit
