SLC VOLUME 61 April 1, 2018 NUMBER 16

Welcome to St. Louis Cathedral....

On behalf of our Archbishop, Most Rev. Gregory M. Aymond, our parishioners, deacons, and priests,

I welcome you to St. Louis Cathedral and hope that your visit will be a memorable one. I invite you to

consider the Cathedral your parish away from home. You join visitors from across the United States

and around the world who celebrate Mass with us daily. It is my prayer that your time here will be a

spiritually uplifting experience.

I appreciate your generosity in the support of our Cathedral, as it is with your help that we are able to

maintain its beautiful state, that we may continue to worship God within these walls as has been done

since 1718. May God enrich you with many graces and blessings.

Easter Sunday

April 1, 2018

PROCLAIM THE RISEN CHRIST

On Easter morning everything—the spring weather,

the flowers, birds and butterflies, the people around us

in their finery, the beautiful liturgy and music—

everything seems to bear witness that Jesus Christ is

risen today! Like the eyewitness accounts in today’s

scriptures, the glorious and joyful life all around us

helps us to believe the good news of the Resurrection

and sing “Alleluia!”

In the scriptures today we hear from Peter and Paul

and John. All three speak with conviction about

witnessing the resurrected Christ. John’s Gospel

account includes Mary of Magdala, who also was

privileged to witness the Resurrection and tell others

the good news. On this glorious Easter Sunday can we

ourselves give eyewitness accounts that Jesus Christ is

risen today, alive and active in our lives?
