The Lord’s greeting to the disciples, “Peace be with you” is directed to us as well. May we recognize the struggles in our hearts each day and draw near to Christ who calms our souls and fosters our joy. Peace be with you!
Recognized by the Sanhedrin to be uneducated, ordinary men, Peter and John demonstrate through their words and actions how God works through people. May we follow their example as we call upon the Lord to guide us in all that we say and do.

Filled with the Holy Spirit, Peter boldly addresses the Sanhedrin and proclaims the Good News of Jesus Christ. May his example in the face of opposition inspire us to call upon the Spirit every day for guidance and strength.
Following the healing of a crippled man, Peter speaks to the crowd and redirects their attention to Jesus and his redeeming work in salvation history. By shining the light on the Lord, we recognize that we are part of God’s great love story, inspired each day to draw closer to Christ.
Peter’s response to the question, “What are we to do?” inspires us to embrace the daily call to conversion of heart as we repent of our sins and draw strength from the Holy Spirit.
There is an intensity in Mary Magdalene, Peter, and John as they run to discover what happened in the early morning hours of the resurrection. As events unfold they will rejoice with exultant faith that Jesus Christ is the Risen Lord!
As we hear the great proclamation of salvation history through the readings of this Easter Vigil, we wait upon the Lord with renewed hope and strength: Christ is alive!
