This is the second Sunday of Easter– a season that lasts for 50 wonderful days, and we continue to celebrate the good news of the resurrection in all its fullness! Sundays and Seasons offers this reflection on the day and the readings we’ll hear:
In today’s gospel the risen Christ appears to the disciples and offers them the gift of peace. Even amid doubts and questions, we experience the resurrection in our Sunday gathering around word and meal, and in our everyday lives. Throughout the coming Sundays of Easter the first two readings will be from the Acts of the Apostles and the first letter of Peter. Even as the early Christians proclaimed the resurrection, we rejoice in the new birth and living hope we receive in baptism.
