Holy Week

Today, as we venerate the Cross, we bring with us the pain of the world—the suffering in Iran, the fear in so many hearts, the violence that seems unending. And we lay it all at the feet of Jesus…not with easy answers, but with trust that somehow, through this mystery of suffering and love, God is still at work.

As you look up at the full moon tonight – the same moon that the Artemis II crew is heading toward – remember that it is the same moon that Moses, David, Esther, Mary, Joseph, and Jesus looked up at. It is also the same moon on which Buzz Aldrin celebrated communion. As you admire the moon, take a moment to reflect on the fact that as long as it remains, God’s covenant stands!
