Easter Blessings

The signs of spring are beginning to show. I wish you the gift of time this Easter, to spend with love ones and to spend in prayer.

I thank You, O God,
For the warming of the winds
That brings the melting of the snow,
For daylight hours that daily grow longer
And richer in the aroma of hope.
Spring lingers below the horizon
As the approaching echoes of Easter
Ring in my ears.
I lift my heart to You, Beloved,
In this season of lent
That gently sweeps across
My sluggish and sleeping heart,
Awakening me
To a deeper love for you.
Birds above, on migratory wings,
Signal me to an inner migration,
A message that draws me homeward
On Spirit’s wings
To the heart of my Beloved.
May I earnestly use these last few
days of lent
To answer the inner urge
To return.
Amen

Everyone here at Notre Dame wishes you a wonderful Easter.

Easter Blessings to you and your family!
