Sixth Sunday of Easter
Brothers and sisters, as we move toward
the end of the Easter season, our
liturgies begin to turn from reflection on
Jesus’ resurrection to our mission as
baptized followers of Christ.
This
Sunday is the pivot for that move. The
message of today’s celebration could not
be clearer. The word “love” appears in
the second reading and Gospel today
eighteen times, especially appropriate
on this Mother’s Day. As we continue
our celebration today, let us be mindful
of God’s great love for us, and also of the
love that we must show to those around
us.
