Bishop Casey, Sisters of St. Joseph remember National Guard during Easter Mass
Bishop Robert Casey and the Sisters of St. Joseph at remembered National Guard during Easter Mass on April 4, 2021.
Alleluia, he is risen
Alleluia, he is risen indeed. That’s the traditional greeting for the Easter season, one that expresses the joy of the resurrection and what it means for our salvation.
Season of Easter: What will we sing in heaven?
There is good reason that we Catholics especially love our church’s customs during Lent and Easter. These seasons intensify the fundamental movement of our faith: the movement from slavery to freedom, the movement from death to eternal life that Jesus Christ alone can bring.
Christ's victory over death proclaims a second chance for all, pope says
The Easter liturgies -- with the fire, sharing of light from the paschal candle, the renewal of baptismal promises and the proclamation that Jesus has risen -- assure people that it is never too late to start again, Pope Francis said.
Teens from Western Springs spreading Easter joy to underserved
The spirit of Easter visited St. John of the Cross Parish in Western Springs a little early when on March 14 teens in the parish youth ministry program assembled Easter baskets to be delivered to children in underserved communities.
Those called for Easter sacraments participate in rite of election
Auxiliary Bishop Mark Bartosic presided at a Rite of Election liturgy at Holy Name Cathedral on Feb. 28, 2021.
Spelman College glee club performs new work at local parish
In honor of the feast of St. Benedict the Moor, members of Spelman College’s Glee Club debuted original compositions of sacred music on April 14 at St. Benedict the African Parish, 340 W. 66th St.
Easter gives us hope, not just optimism
I was once asked to explain the difference between optimism and hope. My response was to point to the transformation that take place in the disciples after the Resurrection.
May 21: Sixth Sunday of Easter
All during this season between Easter and Pentecost, the Sunday readings have included selections from the Acts of the Apostles. At the conclusion of the Gospel of Luke — the first volume of Luke’s work — and at the beginning of the Acts of the Apostles, the Risen Christ instructs his disciples to proclaim the Gospel message of "forgiveness" and to be his "witnesses" to the whole world, beginning "in Jerusalem, throughout Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth."
May 14: Fifth Sunday of Easter
A few weeks ago, I was privileged to give an address to the annual meeting of the National Association of Church Personnel Administrators, an organization composed mainly of human resource professionals who work in Catholic institutions. As you can imagine, these are people who confront on a daily basis the very human dimensions of the church: problematic personnel issues, questions of hiring and firing, resolving disputes.
