Coronavirus Update 5-10-20

Dear Parishioners,

The number of cases is again up by over 1000. But, the hosptilizations are down by 25. We still wait for the opening of Churches. Perhaps, this will happen very soon.

Today is the Fifth Sunday of Easter. I hope we can come to together as a parish before the end of the Easter Season. In today’s Gospel we look to the Last Supper Discourse of Jesus in John 14. Jesus speaks of going to the Father; that he is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. In light of his death and resurrection we see that clearly. He then goes on the speak about he is in the Father and the Father is in him. The two are one in their Divinity. We should believe this because of the works he does. The greatest work is the resurrection, the greatest proof of his divinity and of his Divine Sonship. Because he goes to the Father we will do great works also. This is because his return to the Father opens the way for the sending of the Holy Spirit, the gift of divinity that will give us a share in his divine life. The works of our lives are great because they become the work of God through the Holy Spirit.

God bless, Fr. LaHood
