Easter Message from Bishop Bosco

Easter Message

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

Christ is Risen! Alleluia!

In this Jubilee Year of Hope, we celebrate Easter with hearts full of gratitude and joy. The resurrection of Jesus is the foundation of our hope – a hope that does not disappoint, because it is rooted in the unwavering love of God.

As we reflect on the empty tomb, we are reminded that no darkness is greater than the light of Christ. He has conquered death and opened for us the way to new life. This is the hope that sustains us, especially in times of uncertainty and challenge.

The Jubilee invites us to rediscover and rekindle this hope – not only for ourselves but for the world around us. It is a call to be signs of God’s mercy, agents of reconciliation, and bearers of joy in our homes, our parishes, and our communities.

May the Risen Lord renew your spirit this Easter. May He fill your heart with peace, strengthen your faith, and inspire you to walk boldly in hope, trusting always in His promise: “Behold, I make all things new.” (Revelation 21:5)

With every blessing of the Risen Christ,

+Bosco

Bishop of Clifton
