Easter Sunday, April 5th, 2026
Our Blessed Lord is Risen from the grave! He is Risen Indeed! As people of faith, we know that Our Blessed Lord rose on the third day on that original Easter Sunday morn. The stone was rolled away and Our Lord rose from the dead. Death could not hold Him. Death could not defeat Him. We know that Our Blessed Saviour died on the Cross so that we could be forgiven our sins. He rose from the grave on that glorious Easter morn so that we could have eternal life with Him in Heaven! With all that said, we turn to the Third Chapter of the Epistle written to the Colossians: "IF ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above" (v. 1) And also: "Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth" (v. 2) As sons and daughters of the Risen Lord why do we set our affections on earthly things? We live in the world, yes, but as children of faith, we are not of the world! Our kingdom is in Heaven and Christ is Our Risen King! Let us set our sights on Heavenly things. Let us seek those things above and not spend our precious time seeking earthly things which will ultimately just fade away. The love of God is everlasting.
PLEASE NOTE: Easter Mass at St. Margaret Church will begin at 11:30 am on Easter day, April 5th, 2026.
We gather together at the beautiful Chapel at Marquette Manor, located at 8140 N. Township Line Road on the Northwest side of Indianapolis. Please join us this day and hear the Word of God and give praise and honor to Our Risen Saviour!
