This is the Third Sunday of Easter, and we continue to celebrate the good news of the resurrection! Sundays and Seasons offers this reflection on the day and the readings we’ll hear:
The disciples make a big splash and eat breakfast with the risen Jesus. Wading in the water (remembering baptism) and eating with Jesus (celebrating holy communion) is our weekly encounter with the risen Christ. Jesus asks us again and again: Do you love me? And Jesus invites us, again and again, to follow him, bringing the Easter life to others.
The Lord is risen indeed, alleluia!
