HAPPY EASTER!

Easter Sunday was not within three days of the Transfiguration
but within three days of Good Friday.

Love is not to be measured by the joy and pleasures it gives
but by the ability to draw out of sorrow,

a resurrection out of a crucifixion, and life out of death.
Unless there is a cross in our life, there will never be an empty tomb;

unless there is the crown of thorns, there will never be a halo of light.
- Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen

This Easter Sunday was special. No, there wasn't snow like in Allerheiligen but there sure were many other signs reminding us of life in our previous home.

It was a special blessing for Ju to be able to participate in the Easter Sunday eucharist and an extra bonus that it was at her own home, thanks to the thoughtfulness of her friend Fr Dominik who is presently visiting Singapore.

We were grateful that we could gather round the table of the Risen Lord with family and friends on Easter Sunday, celebrating all that He has done for us and reminding ourselves to keep our hearts open to the Risen Lord truly alive and living in our very midst.

Ju's getting better day by day although there's still much discomfort from the surgery wound. Thanks once again, to all who have prayed for Ju and shown her your care and love. She's recovering under the graces God is pouring upon her and through your love. Thanks!
