Under the rays of the Easter sun, Jesus, together with His own, breaks our burdensome tombstones and introduces us to a new life. He breaks what is weak and tired in our life, what is stuck in it, what is in it without life and love. He breaks the tombstones of our loneliness and guilt and introduces us into the breadth of his Easter love.
In the spirit of this and such love of Christ and His immeasurable mercy, I wish all of us a happy and saving Easter!

I saw Jesus through Mary’s eyes because my eyes were unclean. My mind was wounded. My heart was heavy, but with Mary I jumped towards God”.

''Dear children,
With a motherly love I am calling you to—full of strength, faith and trust—look towards my Son. Keep opening your hearts to Him and do not be afraid, because my Son is the Light of the world and in Him is peace and hope. That is why, anew, anew I am calling you to pray for those of my children who have not come to know the love of my Son. So that my Son, with His light of love and hope, may illuminate also their hearts; and you, my children, that He may strengthen and give you peace and hope. I am with you. Thank you.''
