FIFTH SUNDAY OF EASTER, YEAR C

(Acts 14:21b-27; Ps 145(144); Revelation 21:1-5a; John 13:31-33a, 34-35)

Theme: Glorifying the Lord Glorified in His Word and Sacrificial Love

This Sunday, we are invited to glorify the Lord for restoring us to the image of God and enabling us to participate in His glory, as manifested in the exaltation of our Lord Jesus Christ, in whom the Father was glorified and whom the Father glorified on the cross, a symbol of the most dreadful andhumiliating form of capital punishment of His time. Thus, through Him, men and women were liberated, God’s unending love was bestowed, and all things were made new.
