As Easter approaches please know that you are remembered each day in our Brothers’ daily prayers. We are grateful for your friendship and financial support of our elderly and disabled Brothers and as an Easter gift to you, we have arranged for a special Easter Mass in your honor.
In my Easter preparations, I came across this poem and wanted to share it with our extended Marist family.
May you and your loved ones be blessed abundantly by our Risen Lord this Easter season!
Easter Love
On Easter we celebrate love,
love coming down from heaven,
love blanketing the earth
in a transforming embrace;
unique and infinite love,
giving more than we can imagine
for us, to cleanse our sin,
a perfect sacrifice, Lamb of God,
the walking, talking Word.
He is teacher, role model, friend,
this God in human form,
dying, then rising from the dead,
proving all who believe
will also rise
to have eternal life, with Him,
Lord of all.
Oh, Happy, Happy Easter!
Blessings,
Br. Hugh P. Turley, FMS, CFRE
