You are looking for Jesus of Nazareth who was crucified. He has been raised; he is not here. Look, there is the place where they laid him.
But go, tell his disciples and Peter that he is going ahead of you to Galilee; there you will see him, just as he told you. (Mark 16, 6-7)

I retain three key messages in this passage from the Gospel of Saint Mark, read at the Easter Vigil. First of all, just when the women thought they were entering the world of death, since they were going to embalm the body of Jesus in the tomb, they are told great news: Jesus has risen! What a surprise! For God, nothing is impossible. In the midst of our distress, our suffering, our darkness, the risen Christ reveals himself to us even today.

CCCB Euthanasia and assisted suicide Message to faithful 

Healthcare professionals need our prayers and support. The federal government is about to expand assisted suicide across Canada. Many healthcare professionals with moral convictions are being pushed out of their profession by provincial health regulators. I invite you to visit the website for the Coalition for Health Care and Conscience where you can send an email directly to the Ontario government.
