It Needs to Be More Than Just `Good Morning'

The greeting from Jesus to the disciples was, "Peace be with you." It's something we say at every Mass, but do we take the words of Jesus for granted? How many of us truly experience the inner peace that God has given to each of us at every Mass. When we receive the peace of the Lord, it should be more than just a passing greeting like "good morning." It's the greeting of the Lord, recognizing his presence in every Eucharist. When we come to Mass, let's open our hearts to the words of Jesus, "peace be with you." -Sunday Homily by Fr. Simon Tan, C.Ss.R. (7 April 2024)
