RIP POPE FRANCIS. With his death we have lost one of the greatest leaders of our time. Let us celebrate EARTH DAY today in his memory.

April 22.Tuesday of Easter week. Magdalene loved this story. She shared, “Once when I was quite little you told me that Jesus was everywhere and I must look around to see him.  I didn’t know what he looked like.  It seems that Mary Magdalene also didn’t recognise him.  That made me wonder, how different does he look to different people at different times.” 

Reflect, share and act. Scripture   Supposing him to be the gardener Mary  Magdalene said to him,” Sir if you have carried him away tell where you have laid him and I will take him away. “ Jesus said to her, “Mary”.  She turned and said to him “Rabboni, Teacher.”   Read John 20:11-18 Pope Francis:   The Lord’s presence dwells in real and concrete families, with all their daily troubles and struggles, joys and hopes.  Living in a family makes it hard for us to feign or lie; we cannot hide behind a mask.  AL315.  JUBILEE.  The Gospel tells us that Jesus “came to his own” (cf. Jn 1:11). Those words refer to us, for the Lord does not treat us as strangers but as a possession that he watches over and cherishes. He treats us truly as “his own”. This does not mean that we are his slaves, something he himself denies: “I do not call you servants” (Jn 15:15). Rather, it refers to the sense of mutual belonging typical of friends. Jesus came to meet us, bridging all distances; he became as close to us as the simplest, everyday realities of our lives  DN 34.Choose an appropriate action.
