Throughout the Easter season, all three of the Sunday readings are taken from the New Testament, the Christian scrip-tures. Together they explore what it means to believe in Jesus as the Christ, the One who fulfilled the prophecies of the Jewish scriptures. Today’s selections refer to our human weakness, yet they emphasize the forgiveness and peace that are available to those who put their faith in “Jesus Christ the righteous one." In the Acts of the Apostles Peter invites everyone to “repent, there-fore, and be converted, that your sins may be wiped away." The First Letter of John calls Jesus Christ “expiation for our sins." Finally, in the Gospel Jesus greets the disciples with “Peace” and urges them to preach “repentance, for the for-giveness of sins." Peace, Fr. Frank
