After the splendour of the Easter Vigil we now have a quiet hour or two when we can reflect on what the Resurrection means for each of us. All three synoptics tell us that it was the women going secretly to anoint Jesus who were the first to hear that ‘He has risen from the dead’. In our very male-dominated Church, it is easy to forget that women were (and are) apostles of the Resurrection, called to ‘tell the disciples and Peter’ what they have seen and heard. To be an apostle in this sense, to witness to the reality of the Resurrection, to proclaim it fearlessly, is indeed to be filled with awe and great joy.
May you have a blessed Easter.
Happy Easter to all those who have shared the journey through this blog.
A very happy and holy Easter to one and all!
Women are apostles of the Resurrection…
Thank you.
May you have a blessed Easter as well!

Male dominated church? Where are you? I’m moving there!
