I AM A CATHOLIC AND FEEL HAPPY ABOUT IT

Our esteemed readers of The Parishioner, and all parishioners of Naggulu Parish Happy Easter to youall. Let me borrow the words of the well known Easter Song by Sr. M. T. Winter of the Medical Mission Sisters to wish you Happy celebrations in “song”:
“My Lord came forth like the morning
With the splendour of the sun,
Came triumphant from the womb,
From the darkness of the tomb,
The victory won, alleluia.
Sing alleluia, the Lord is risen,
He is risen indeed, alleluia!”

It is my most desired experience for each and every one of you who are  reading this message; that those words of the song not only echo in your ears but resonate in your lives! Jesus the Sun is up! May you too come forth with the splendor of the Sun from the darkness of whatever tomb you may have been sealed. And of course Sing Alleluia…………..

I am singing Alleluia, the Lord is risen! As if by design, which I had no way of knowing but left it in God’s  hands and accepted it as it came, just before the beginning of Holy Week, my body began to feel  unusually weak and all that….. Well I ended up with having to pay a visit to my Doctor and coming back home with what those here at the presbytery baptized “a loving pharmacy”! Today I feel very joyful that I had a very, very, small share in the suffering of our Lord physically during this year’s Holy Week and can say more meaningfully deep within my heart that: “the victory is won, Alleluia’ sing alleluia the Lord risen” the response would be “ He’s risen indeed”. That must be the Easter joy for all of us.

Time to break open the dark tombs and let the light of the Rising Sun shine into them so we may all sing an
alleluia.
