Introduction by Fr. Michael

Welcome to the Fifth Week of Easter in our Season of Joy series.

This week, our six meditations invite us to rest more deeply in the healing love of Christ—a love that knows us personally, prepares a home for us, meets us in our woundedness, and speaks peace into our fear.

Monday

Rosanne continues today with John 14, where Jesus speaks tenderly to His troubled disciples: “Do not let your hearts be troubled.” In a moment of uncertainty and fear, Jesus assures them—and us—that we are not abandoned. He prepares a dwelling place for us, a home of peace, belonging, and renewal. We are invited to place our anxieties in His hands and trust that He is the way, the truth, and the life.

So this week, we pray for the grace to be known, healed, stilled, and strengthened by Christ.
The Good Shepherd knows us.
The Living Water renews us.
The love of God holds us.
The voice of Jesus speaks into every storm:

Take heart. It is I. Do not be afraid.
